This is the uncommon May 1959 number of Poetry (Chicago). A very good copy of 71 pages. Just a tiny spot on the back wrapper. See photo #4.  

See photo #2 & #3 for complete contents. 

Outstanding issue highlights include: 

Critic Hugh Kenner (6 pages) on William Carlos Williams' Paterson (Book V) and I Wanted to Write a Poem. 

Two fine new poems from the pen of Delmore Schwartz.

"H.D.'s" (Hilda Doolittle) new verse, opening the issue, Regents of the Night. See photo #3 for first page of her poem. 

Harold Norse (then resident at Naples) pens a new poem, Was It Florence or Venice. 

James Dickey on the work of five "young poets," although he was a young poet (age 36) himself. 

Alan Neame on poems by Ralph Hodgson and the Collected Poems of John Betjeman. 

Other poems and prose by Kenneth Koch, Philip Booth, Josephine Jacobson, Jean Garrigue (on the Complete Poems of Dylan Thomas), and others. 

"New Notes" in this issue tell us, among many other things, that Ezra Pound (freed a year earlier from captivity in a Washington, D.C. criminal asylum) is about to read from his work in Munich and the details of the birth of the controversial new Chicago magazine, Big Table, is announced..
