Also previously unpublished: Berrigan's obituary to Frank O'Hara, "Frank O'Hara Dead at 40," which first appeared in an East Village underground newspaper in 1966.

The edition highlights Ted Berrigan's connections to City Lights, including pieces about Frank O'Hara and Lunch Poems. 

Brings together many key texts revealing Berrigan's poetics and process, topics popular with writers today.

Since his death in 1983, Ted Berrigan has retained his reputation as one of the most significant poets of his generation. 

First book by Ted Berrigan since 2011 (Selected Poems). 

Berrigan's Collected Poems and Sonnets are key texts in 20th century American poetry, found in most bookstores. This book will find a home next to those volumes.
