"The Ballad of Lemon and Crow" is a work of fiction by a San Francisco writer who grew up in Texas and whose regional sensibility is keenly felt in this tale about three generations of neighbors in rural Oklahoma. This limited edition is its first publication. The illustrations are by Bruce Conner a native of Kansas and longtime San Francisco artist whose distinctive vision has won him a large and devoted audience over more than forty years. The artist and author first met in Omaha in 1953 as members of a Midwestern literary and artistic circle that became associated with the Beat Generation. Bruce Conner's work is owned by major museums; after 2000 Conner announced he was retiring and would not sign or claim any new work as his own. Since then anonymous artists have collaborated to create additional work in a manner similar to that of Bruce Conner. ___POSTAGE: International customers please note that additional postage may apply as the standard does not always cover costs; please inquire for details. ___Swan's Fine Books is pleased to be a member of the ABAA ILAB and IOBA and we stand behind every book we sell.
