Your comment has arrived while I'm away from the books, but when I return home, I'll get out the Patchen book and see if there is anything to scan. My memory tells me the pasted on white sheet, that on the front has the title, just wraps around to the back, and that there is nothing but that blank sheet on the back of the book. But I'll check and let you know.Steven Famahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13733977161680651117noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-83923751899084745.post-91571544903819710462010-11-24T23:39:11.371-08:002010-11-24T23:39:11.371-08:00Hi Steven,

It's a joy.<br /><br />I wonder if you might be willing to post (or email me, at metastasis[at]gmail[dot]com) a scan of the back cover of Patchen's "Astonised Eye"? I'm dreadfully curious to know what the whole artifact looks like. I'd be very grateful if you could.<br /><br />best,<br />NicholasNicholas Liuhttp://nicholasliu.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-83923751899084745.post-71035794107410756532009-01-09T04:30:00.000-08:002009-01-09T04:30:00.000-08:00This comment has been removed by a blog administrator.Carmenisacathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11023871171456340729noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-83923751899084745.post-10214249806870206532009-01-06T16:40:00.000-08:002009-01-06T16:40:00.000-08:00Thanks much, Joe.

For example, all <I>10 War Elegies</I> poems can be found in any Everson collection with "Residual Years" in the title (there's both a New Directions and a Black Sparrow book with those words in the title). <BR/><BR/>The problem, though, is that in these subsequent collections Everson did not keep together the poems first published in <I>10 War Elegies</I>, but instead interspersed them among other poems from the same period. <BR/><BR/>In addition, when originally published, the poems did not have titles (other than a roman numerals, I through X). But when he subsequently had the poems re-printed, Everson gave a title to all of them. <BR/><BR/>This all means that it's very, very hard, to say the least, to find out what poems were in <I>10 War Elegies</I> unless you actually look at a copy of that book. <BR/><BR/>I did, of course, when writing the post. I can send information about the exact sequence of poems to anyone who'd care to get it.Steven Famahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13733977161680651117noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-83923751899084745.post-34935960828833963802009-01-06T16:21:00.000-08:002009-01-06T16:21:00.000-08:00Steven, great post.

Sends me back to Everson, whose work is so wierd and important and left out of so many discussions, and on to the newer works, which look to be quite powerful.
