Description: Combining street wisdom with insights from art and history, blending high and popular culture, Kaufman’s poetry reflects a singular wit and lyricism that has earned him the respect of poets and readers worldwide. Cranial Guitar, the only major collection available of the late Bob Kaufman’s classic works, contains selections from The Ancient Rain, Solitudes Crowded with Loneliness, the entire text of the long-out-of-print Golden Sardine, as well as poems that have never appeared in book form including the last one Kaufman wrote before his death in 1986. CRANIAL GUITAR: SELECTED POEMS OF BOB KAUFMAN. Softcover, in Wraps. Minneapolis: Cofee House Press. Third Printing, Ending in '3.' 1996. 6 x 9. 192 pages. A very good to like-new collection of poems from the rebel poet, in wraps. Square, straight, and tight. Minor shelf wear to wraps, with tiny smudge on bottom edge, otherwise like-new. Internally unblemished, with clean, bright pages free of writing. No owner names. No highlighting. An excellent copy. Brilliant, unique poems from America's premier outsider jazz poet, or, as the French called him, the "Black Rimbaud." A true original.
