Description:
New Directions. First Edition. Hardcover. Signed Good/No Jacket. Family owned bookshop in Steubenville, Ohio. Book SIGNED and INSCRIBED by Thomas Merton to author Fr. Ray Ryland. 'To Fr. Ray Ryland with very best wishes J [?] M[?] Louis.' Merton used his monastic name Louis after his ordination in 1949. One of Merton's most personal books, 'Original Child Bomb' is a series of meditations on the atom bomb, with ink watercolors by Merton. The experimental prose and abstract art never won the book many followers, and it has become one of Merton's rarest titles. It was, nevertheless, one of the books he was most fond of, and sent to friends, as this personal copy attests. Fr. Ray Ryland taught at the University of the South at Sewanee and Franciscan University of Steubenville, and was friends with Merton, visiting him in Kentucky. A piece of history. Family-owned bookshop in Steubenville, Ohio: BookMarx Bookstore. Books shipped within 24 hours.

Description:
(n.p.): (New Directions). (1962). One of 8000 copies in wrappers of Merton's meditation on the bombing of Hiroshima and Nagasaki. Inscribed by Merton: "For Doris/ from Tom." Doris Dana and Merton met in 1966, having been introduced by Dana's godfather, Jacques Maritain. Dana visited Merton at the Gethsemani monastery twice in 1967, and the two maintained a correspondence until Merton died in December, 1968. Foxing to covers, and a creased bump to the spine crown; very good in wrappers. Mailing label from the Abbey of Gethsemani, made out to Dana in Merton's hand is included. There was a signed limited edition of this title done -- 500 copies -- which is uncommon now; signed copies of the trade edition are considerably scarcer, especially with a good association as this one has. Unless otherwise noted, our first editions are first printings. First Edition. Softcover. Very Good.
