KNEES OF A NATURAL MAN: The Selected Poetry of Henry Dumas.

Edition: First printing.

New York: Thunder's Mouth Press, (1989) dj. Hardcover first edition - Edited and with a substantial introduction by Eugene B. Redmond. Before his death in 196, at just 33 (shot, in a case of "mistaken identity" by a transit cop in a New York subway station), Dumas had produced numerous poems and short stories, only partially published. His poetry has been called "eloquent, precise and controlled ... a poetry of powerful outrage." This volume includes both works from his earlier books and some never before published poems. Quite scarce now in the hardcover first edition. [26], 155 pp. ISBN: 0-938410-75x.

Condition: Fine in fine dust jacket (appears unread.)
