THE POETRY PROJECT NEWSLETTER [34 Issues]

"BEGUN IN 1972, the Poetry Project Newsletter was mimeographed on the Gestetner machine in the Project's office; its corner-stapled pages listed new publications and upcoming events of interest to the Project's community. Most of these had to do with poetry, but there were also announcements of plays, performances, and art exhibits, as well as an occasional plea for a cheap apartment to rent or kittens in need of a home." — Ed Friedman

Announces readings and workshops held at this cornerstone of the New York poetry community, along with reviews of many recent publications, as well as poems by many mainstays of the Poetry Project's stage: Robert Creeley, Larry Fagin, Anne Waldman, Maureen Owen, James Schuyler, Anselm Hollo, Eileen Myles, and many others. A nice run of issues from this poetry stalwart, with excellent provenance from a fellow poetry and small press figure.
