A then-unpublished sonnet by Berrigan, as he notes; it would later be printed in the United Artists edition of THE SONNETS. Signed and dated September 24, 1982, this example was never issued, as it is from the collection of Ken and Ann Mikolowski (proprietors of the Alternative Press).
Edited by Ron Padgett (who also typed the stencils), this remains the definitive statement of the Second Generation of the New York School as well as Berrigan's most influential, popular, and lasting work - a measure of which can be seen in the fact that it is the only major American collection of the last fifty years to go through four separate editions, each at different publishers.
