Author: Kerouac, Jack
Title: THE DHARMA BUMS
Publication: New York: The Viking Press, 1958
Edition: First Edition

Description: Hardcover. First edition, first printing. The Dharma Bums, at once an exploration of Buddhist spirituality and an account of the Bay Area poetry scene, is notable for its thinly veiled portraits of Kerouac's acquaintances, including Allen Ginsberg, Gary Snyder, and Kenneth Rexroth. Octavo: 244 p. Original black cloth binding, with silver and gilt titles. A bit of wear to the corners and tips, with some rubbing to the silver stamping in the author's name on the spine; else very good. Very good.
