First Edition
First edition. Octavo. pp xi, 68. Photographs. Full red cloth with the photo on upper cover. Designed and composed by Bruce Kennett. An exhibition held at the Grolier Club from 14 September through 19 November 2005, drawn largely from the Sylvia Plath Collection at Smith College and the Ted Hughes Papers and Library at Emory University.On the front free endpaper is the ownership signature of Frieda Hughes, the daughter of the two poets who were the subjects of the exhibition. She received this copy on the occasion of a celebratory luncheon where she gave a talk based on her memories. It is signed on the title-page by Stephen C. Enniss and on the half-title by seventeen attendees, most of whom seem to be Emory teaching staff or alumni. Loosely inserted is a print-out of two colour photographs of bears, together with a manuscript note by Frieda Hughes, explaining, ''The book designer saw a male and female bear in his garden as he designed the book - he felt this was a good omen. He gave me the photos at the Emory dinner on 13/9/05''. One can't help thinking that Ted Hughes would have agreed with the designer.Fine. No dustwrapper issued.
