Among the contents of this issue are an interview with Helen Adam; poems by Charles Bukowski, Sharon Olds, James Dickey and many others; and an illustrated report on the First Annual NYQ Poetry Day Banquet, held on October 15, 1977. The occasion was a tribute to James Dickey and bestowed on him the NYQ Poetry Day award. Very good .
