Hardcover. Zustand: Very Good. Zustand des Schutzumschlags: Good. 1st Edition. First Edition, 1st printing. Clean & tight copy, gently read, in Very Good condition. "The subject of literary influence is broader, more interesting and more passionate than most literary scholars and critics conceive it to be. Their discussions are…typically confined to the influence of previous writers (Gertrude Stein's influence on Hemingway, Pound's influence on Eliot, etc.), or to the influence of ideas and ideologies on a given writer (Marxism, Symbolism, the New Criticism, and so forth). But this is to take a narrow and often tedious view of the subject, and the editor, Stephen Berg, has therefore asked some twenty-four of our leading poets, novelists and critics to reconsider one (or more) of the deeper lasting influences on their work and write about it in a personal and concrete way." [jacket copy] Contributors include Raymond Carver, Carolyn Forche, John Gardner, Edward Hoagland, Cynthia Ozick, Gilbert Sorrentino, Grace Paley and many more poets. Coover on Beckett is classic. "IN PRAISE OF WHAT PERSISTS is a superb collection: writers in communion with their own vocation, honest and brave, not posing for the camera, and more eloquent for this reason. I suspect that it will make a powerful impact on those people who romanticize the writer's life. And it will be a strong voice for empowerment and consolation of those men and women who are writers and who do persist--whether they ever get the praise or not."--Jonathan Kozol. VG (not bad for a 40-year-old) hardcover has foxing on cloth cover's spine, o/w unmarked, w/good intact jacket (dent on back); not a remainder, square & tight binding, a quite nice collection of literary testimonials.

Trade paperback. Zustand: Very good. 199, [1] pages. A first and posthumous collection of short stories by Joyce Renwick (1942-1995). Foreword by Richard Bausch. Joyce Louise Titus was born in Woodbury, New Jersey. Before she was able to read, Joyce was fascinated with words on a printed pageas a child she lay on the hallway flo…or copying newspaper headlines word for word. At the age of twelve she started writing poetry and short stories in a daily journal, which she kept until her death on August 14, 1995. She first published at the age of thirteen having won first place in a poetry contest. Her stories appeared in the Sewanee Review, Southern Review, Michigan Quarterly Review, and the Best American Short Stories. This is the first published collection of her work. The contents include Crispy Critters, The Goat, The Beast, Cuatro Casas, Sportin' Life, In Praise of What Persists, Cane, The Man Who Loved Chekhov, Where Are you Now, Ella Wade,Turtle Soup, Skin, and Animal Mischef. Derived from a review of Joyce Renwick's In Praise of What Persists by Gary Garth McCann. Joyce Renwick died in a car accident in Iowa in August 1995, shortly after she'd edited a novel manuscript for me. I never met her, only spoke to her over the phone from DC, and didn't learn of her death until years later when I tried to get in touch about another manuscript. With a BA that covered both nursing and English, Renwick studied for a Masters in English at Middlebury College and paid her tuition for seven summers at the Bread Loaf Writing Conference by serving as the nurse on call twenty-four hours a day (reflected in the story, "The Man Who Loved Chekhov"). She received her MFA from the University of Iowa's Writer's Workshop and buried her nursing shoes in her backyard. Richard Bausch writes of their college friendship, he an obsessed young father worrying about his own health, Joyce a nurse eventually sharing her frights. Besides surfing in Baja, this collection of Renwick's fiction includes other settings and topics as diverse and exotic as turtle hunting on a farmstead, the nursing nightshift in an emergency room, and an old seaman, living out his days in Savannah poverty, becoming the victim of a hate crime against the aged while mentally reliving life at sea. First Edition [stated], presumed first printing. Molly Bennett (Cover photograph) (illustrator).
