Spacewalks: Poems for the Moon Age (1971)

 


So to keep up with my strange postings, today is strange (bad?) space poetry. I like the drawings that are VERY late 60s with spacecraft and other images mixed together. I also like his approach to using our Space Race as an inspiration to think about what people had done and what they might do. Your mileage may vary :) At least I can safely assume you have never seen this before.

Roberts, Burgent. Spacewalks : Poems for a Moon Age. New York: Harper and Row. (90 p.) 1971.


Can't really believe he signed this book to Grace Slick and Paul Kantner (Jefferson Airplane).
