We got a copy of this in yesterday from a rep. It's priced as used—we wrapped its jacket in a Brodart sleeve—but it's not.


In Memory of My FeelingsIn Memory of My Feelings

by Frank O'Hara

This book, originally published by the Museum in 1967 to honor its late curator, was edited by the poet Bill Berkson, who had been a close friend of O'Hara's and was then a guest editor in the Museum's Department of Publications. Berkson invited thirty artists who had known O'Hara, ranging from Willem de Kooning to Claes Oldenburg, from Joan Mitchell to Jasper Johns, to produce works to accompany his poems. The book was issued in a limited edition as a set of folded sheets held loose in a cloth-and-board folio that was itself contained in a slipcase. Now, for the first time, the Museum has republished In Memory of My Feelings in a conventionally bound edition, and with a newly designed paper jacket instead of a slipcase. In every other way, however, this book is an exact facsimile of the edition of 1967. Includes 49 black and sepia illustrations.



I can't afford it. I bought the Dada book instead.
