Full set of the seven issues of this highly regarded literary and arts magazine edited by David Wright and Patrick Swift. All seven issues in fine condition with just the merest touch of rubbing to the head of the backstip on a couple of numbers and and couple of turns to the corners. Rare to find the full run in such a prime state. Contributors during the four years of publications included Dannie Abse, Craigie Aitchison, Michael Andrews, Frank Auerbach, Francis Bacon, George Barker, Samuel Beckett, David Bomberg, Yves Bonnefoy, Anthony Cronin, René Daumal, Lucian Freud, David Gascoyne, Ghika, Alberto Giacometti, Robert Graves, John Heath-Stubbs, Aidan Higgins, Geoffrey Hill, Philippe Jaccottet, Patrick Kavanagh, Oskar Kokoschka, Malcolm Lowry, Hugh MacDiarmid, Charles Marowitz, Phillip Martin artist, André Masson, John McGahern, O. V. de L. Milosz, Dom Moraes, Robert Nye, Boris Pasternak, Robert Pinget, Ezra Pound, Malcolm Quantrill, Michel Saint-Denis, Martin Seymour-Smith, C. H. Sisson, Stevie Smith, Jules Supervielle, Nathaniel Tarn, and Vernon Watkins. Patrick Swift was an Irish painter, David Wright a South African-born poet. They met in London in 1953 in the the Duke of Wellington pub, Soho, at that time the preferred rendezvous of London's arty crowd of poets and painters. It was here that Swift and Wright first discussed the idea of creating a new literary magazine, a quarterly which would publish writing on artistic issues they felt to be of importance. Book.
