  • first
Norfolk, CT: New Directions, 1957. First edition. Hardcover. The first trade edition. Illustrated with drawings by Ben Shahn. A clean very near fine copy in a bright very near fine dust jacket that has a small tear and a small tape stain to the verso. A lovely copy that is much nicer than usual as the jacket is very prone to fading.

Description:
Used book may have writing, markings inside book. DJ has bumping on the top/spine, edges, corners. The DJ is very thin on the whole spine. Lower part of spine DJ is missing little pieces. Outer edges may have stains, tanning, browning, foxing. Dahlberg's intent seems to have been as much to display his bulging erudition and arch, archaic way with words as to decry man's slavery to the sexual urge. His ostensible subject is often buried beneath an avalanche of classical, historical, and anthropological allusions, but at least the book is riddled with eccentric epithets along the lines of "Man is double, and who may know his heart: he is a moral hermaphrodite." The author's tone is judgmental and defiant throughout, but that doesn't energize the book. The tedium of reading finally overwhelms any interest his oblique approach might provide, and there are no illuminating observations about the eternal itch, merely a catalogue of references to Greek gods, Mayan myths, and "primeval potherbs." A16.
