Information about the edition: "Published by Grove Press / A division of Grove Press, Inc. / 841 Broadway / New York, NY 10003-4793." Printed in 1993; the January 1 date is a placeholder. First English-language edition. ISBN listed as 0-8021-1516-0, but I guess this was before they included the 978. Also in the LoC Cataloging-in-Publication: PL865.07138K5813 1993 / 895.6'35-dc20 / 92-12871.

Review of the book: bizarre little book! I liked it though. So weirdly matter-of-fact and yet also overwrought.
