Hardcover. Etat : As New. Etat de la jaquette : As New. 1st Edition. 1st printing. An Annotated Edition, Edited by Timothy F. Jackson with Introduction by Holly Peppe. 'This beautifully produced first annotated edition of Edna St. Vincent Millay's oeuvre represents the work of the Jazz Age's most famous poet.' Bright, clean & tight copy, unread, in AS NEW condition. "More than sixty years after her death, the Pulitzer Prize-winning poet Edna St. Vincent Millay continues to captivate new generations of readers. The twentieth-century American author was catapulted to fame after the publication of Renascence, her first major work and a poem written while she was still a teenager. Millay's frank attitude toward sexuality--along with immortal lines such as 'My candle burns at both ends'--solidified her reputation as the quintessential liberated woman of the Jazz Age. [] In this authoritative volume, Timothy F. Jackson has compiled and annotated a new selection that represents the full range of her published work alongside previously unpublished manuscript excerpts, poems, prose, and correspondence. The poems, appearing as they were printed in their first editions, are complemented by Jackson's extensive, illuminating notes that draw on archival sources and help situate her work in its historical and literary context. Two introductory essays--one by Jackson and the other by Millay's literary executor, Holly Peppe--also help critically frame the poet's work. [] This deluxe edition will be cherished by readers who continue to study and enjoy the work of this iconic figure." [jacket copy] "An unabashed feminist and sexual adventurer, the embodiment of the new woman of the Jazz Age, and, most important, a gifted poet, Millay enjoyed the plaudits of general readers and literary critics during the 1920s and early 1930s. . . SELECTED POEMS OF EDNA ST. VINCENT MILLAY is distinguished by its use of first-edition versions of poems, its scrupulous annotations, and a superb introduction by Peppe."--Choice. "Edna St. Vincent Millay is like Robert Frost or Philip Larkin in that her poems would survive even if every professor and professional critic ignored them (as, at times, they have). Her poems are both ancient and modern, comprised of equal parts pain and elation, ravishing music and stark reality. She can break your heart, or, perhaps more importantly, remind you of the person who once had a heart that could be broken."--Christian Wiman. Pristine hardcover w/brilliant corners & crisp edges, a square & tight binding, wrapped in a bright-as-new, beautiful & intact jacket. Quite presentable.…
