Annotation: When Wilson bought and transformed a little bookshop in New York's Greenwich Village, it became a mecca for literary personalities who included Marianne Moore, Michael McClure, and Allen Ginsberg. This memoir brings back the heyday of the Phoenix, when famous writers mingled among the shelves of their own books.
Praise
Bloomsbury Review "[D]evotes of book collecting and modern American literature will enjoy Wilson's affectionate backward look at a golden age." - Gregory McNamee November/December 2001
