Bill Berkson : Sudden Address

In this stunning collection of lectures spanning twenty-five years, poet and critic Bill Berkson addresses subjects as various as Walt Whitman, Frank O'Hara, Philip Guston, Dante, and the Sublime. Ron Padgett writes: "Bill Berkson's writing is witty, musical, daily, and deep, underpinned by a bracing integrity and shot through with gorgeous abstraction and other brilliant hookups between eye, ear, mind, and heart." 

Sudden Address was typeset in Martin Major's Scala and designed by Kyle Schlesinger at the Cuneiform Press in January, 2007. There are 500 paperback copies and 26 hardcover copies lettered and signed by the author. 500 additional paperback copies were printed in 2010. Cover art by Philip Guston.
