ABOUT THIS BOOK: The National Book Award–winner Patti Smith presents a treasure box of a childhood memoir about “clear unspeakable joy” and “just the wish to know.” A great book about becoming an artist, Woolgathering tells of a youngster finding herself as she learns the noble vocation of woolgathering, “a worthy calling that seemed a good job for me.” She discovers often at night, often in nature the pleasures of rescuing “a fleeting thought.” Deeply moving, Wool- gathering calls up our own memories, as the child “glimpses and gleans, piecing together a crazy quilt of truths.” Smith introduces us to her tribe, “a race of cloud dwellers,” and to the fierce, vital pleasures of cloud watching and stargazing and wandering.(Publisher).

Signed by Smith on the half title.We all know about Patti: born December 30, 1946, in Chicago; multifaceted American artist renowned for her contributions to music, poetry, and visual arts. Emerging in the 1970s, she became a pivotal figure in the New York City punk rock movement with her debut album Horses. Beyond music, Smith's literary prowess is evident in her memoirs and poetry collections, earning her accolades like the National Book Award for Just Kids. (One of my all-time favs, btw).

The book features 366 photographs—one for each day of the year, including leap day—paired with brief reflections. These images range from personal moments to tributes to artists and thinkers like William Blake and Sylvia Plath. Smith's contemplative captions offer insights into her daily life and creative process, making the book a unique blend of diary, photo album, and artistic meditation.A poetic journey through a year in Patti Smith's life, A Book of Days invites readers into the intimate moments and inspirations of an iconic artist.

U.S.A.: Alfred A Knopf, Inc., 2015. 1st Edition 1st Printing. Hardcover. New/New. 8vo - over 7¾ - 9¾" tall. Signed by author in black fountain ink directly on title page. M TRAIN begins in the tiny Greenwich Village café where Smith goes every morning for black coffee, ruminates on the world as it is and the world as it was, and writes in her notebook. Through prose that shifts fluidly between dreams and reality, past and present, we travel to Frida Kahlo's Casa Azul in Mexico; to the fertile moon terrain of Iceland; to a ramshackle seaside bungalow in New York's Far Rockaway that Smith acquires just before Hurricane Sandy hits; to the West 4th Street subway station, filled with the sounds of the Velvet Underground after the death of Lou Reed; and to the graves of Genet, Plath, Rimbaud, and Mishima. Woven throughout are reflections on the writer's craft and on artistic creation. Here, too, are singular memories of Smith's life in Michigan and the irremediable loss of her husband, Fred Sonic Smith. Braiding despair with hope and consolation, illustrated with her signature Polaroids,M TRAIN is a meditation on travel, detective shows, literature, and coffee. It is a powerful, deeply moving book by one of the most remarkable multiplatform artists at work today. Smith's previous memoir, JUST KIDS, was the winner of the 2010 National Book Award for Nonfiction. Pristine, new, unread, first edition, first printing, in brown cloth boards in new, mylar-protected dust jacket.
