So reads the title page of the 1967 edition,
and the edition reprinted 40 years later, in 2007
The 2007 reprint of this book reproduces the original
as scrupulously as low tech allows. Perhaps low budget
actually helps. The book remains the largest single
collection of levy's poems.
The 2007 facsimile edition was reprinted by Russell Salamon in
collaboration with others who donated funds and shared distribution
and proceeds. This famous anthology gathers an essential and
extensive collection of levy's poetry, Concrete poetry, picture-poems,
prose, poetic manifestoes and editorials, plus letters from poets
and writers world-wide written in support of levy after his indictment
and arrest, and newspaper accounts of same. levy's North American
Book of the Dead, Parts I-III (1966-67) is also included. The
2007 edition also offers a listing of books, theses, papers,
booksellers, periodicals, small presses, bibliographies, web sites,
films and music focusing on d.a.levy as well as an informative glossary
of names and terms appearing in levy's poetic works, including
Cleveland place names, history and historical figures; hipster word
meanings; Ancient Hebrew, Greek, Arabic, Egyptian and Assyrian deities,
figures, concepts and traditions evoked in the poems, Buddhist
vocabulary, and more.
