Collected Lyrics of Edna St. Vincent Millay - 1939

"These two-hundred-odd lyrics, some of considerable length, have been selected by Miss Millay from her published poems. Arranged chronologically they follow the order of their original publication, from Renascence to Huntsman, What Quarry? Miss Millay's poetry has been acclaimed for its lyrical perfection, and its creator as one of America's foremost poets. Robert P. Tristram Coffin wrote, "'Going among her lyrics is like going into the woods before the leaves are completely out, going among the delicate tracery of shaodws... Every breath is tuned, every line is true, every curve seems right'." - Collected Lyrics of Edna St. Vincent Millay Published 1939, Harper & Row, New York Hardcover. Approx. 6x8.5in. 324pp. Dustjacket rear top has a missing chunk (see photo), and shows wear on top edge. Book itself is in good shape.
