Defiance: A Radical Review, #1

New York, NY: Coronet Communications, Inc., 1970. First Printing. Softcover. An exemplary softcover-original specimen of commodified radicalism from the 1960s, just as it was beginning to coagulate from peaceful flower-power into stridency (as signified by the cover image of a hippie couple, the woman giving the peace sign while the man raises his clenched fist). With articles & poetry by the now-venerable NYC journalist Nat Henthoff, poet & Warhol "factory" member Gerard Malanga, Dotson Rader (also editor of this compilation & long-time confidante of Tennessee Williams), & many others. Also features a then-current directory of radical, revolutionary & feminist organizations. A classic relic of the later radical era, in near-fine condition with only moderate creases, rubbing & soiling to front, back covers & spine; mild rubbing, soiling & scratches to mildly fading yellow edges. Interior fine except for very mild browning at edges of pages, small crease through upper right corner from cover to cover. Near Fine. [Item #1955]
