The Grand Hotels (of Joseph Cornell)

Robert Coover · Burning Deck · 2002

True first is the 2002 Burning Deck edition. The original record described only the paperback wraps; in fact cloth hardcover states (including a signed issue of 50) were published the same year and are the senior issue. Five of the texts appeared earlier in the anthology A Convergence of Birds (D.A.P., 2001), so that anthology holds the first appearance of those pieces.
