The Incognito Lounge
Author: Johnson, Denis
Title: The Incognito Lounge
Publication: NY: Random House, 1982
Edition: First Edition
Description: Octavo; 79pp.; black cloth, in dust jacket. Signed by Johnson on the half-title.
Light foxing to textblock edges and endpapers, mild musty odor, else very good in a very good plus unclipped jacket with a short closed tear at base of spine, minor interior foxing that barely shows through in a few spots on the flaps.
Johnson’s considerable empathy and gift for images are both on full display in this, his third book of verse. Selected by Mark Strand for the National Poetry Series, and published a year before Johnson’s first novel, Angels. Rear panel features praise from Raymond Carver and David St. John. A more than presentable copy.
