FOUR ISSUES OF OCCIDENT, U.C. BERKELEY'S LITERARY JOURNAL, 1957-1960. DIANE WAKOSKI was a student at UCB during those years, and in these issues she is a contributing poet, as well as an Editor and Manager of the literary journal. These issues contain some of her earliest poems.

Published by the Associated Students of the University of California, 1957-1960. First editions.

The OCCIDENT issues are:

FALL 1957. In this issue Wakoski is listed as being on the Editorial Staff;

SPRING 1958. Wakoski contributes two poems and is listed as Manager of the Publication;

WINTER 1958. Wakoski contributed three poems and is listed as the Editor of Occident;

WINTER 1950: Wakoski contributed two poems and is still listed as the Editor.

All four issues are in generally GOOD condition, some toning, some wear, soiling and creasing to the covers, overall still tight, bright and unmarked.

A nice collection of some of Diane Wakoski's earliest poetry, and a record of her working with poets and literary groups even as a young college student.
