Tree Taking Root by David Wilk (1978)


 Tree Taking Root

David Wilk

Truck Press

St. Paul, MN

(c) 1978

This is one of 500 copies printed by Karl Young of Membrane Press in Milwaukee, WI. 2nd printing. Beautifully produced book. Staple-bound. 

Some of the poems in this collection are laid out in a way that I like, sort of haphazardly or random but in all likelihood intentional and with purpose, both visually and to allow the reader to "breathe" as the poet himself would. 

I am not familiar with Mr. Wilk's work but this is really an overlooked gem.
