SCARCE SIGNED! Brand new, never read. SIGNED FIRST EDITION, second printing. Personally flat signed directly to the full title page. Not a tip in. Not a bookplate. Dust jacket hand covered in protective archival grade Mylar for years of worry free reading/collecting! This book is pristine. Opened only for Ms. Smith to sign. 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. A radiant new autobiographical piece, Two Worlds (which was not in the original 1992 Hanuman edition of Woolgathering), and the author s photographs and illustrations are also included. Woolgathering celebrates the sacred nature of creation with Smith s beautiful style, acclaimed as glorious (NPR), spellbinding (Booklist), rare and ferocious (Salon), and shockingly beautiful (New York Magazine). Black-and-white illustrations

SIGNED by Patti Smith (name only) on the title page. First Edition, Second Printing, 2011. Fine contents, binding and unclipped dust jacket. A very nice copy.
