Octavo, gray cloth & green boards (hardcover), xviii + 301 pp. Good, with small chip to lower spine; in a Good, mylar protected dust jacket with edgewear. From dust jacket: Marianne Moore's poetry has been highly praised by critics on both sides of the Atlantic for its qualities of wit…, elegance, and delicacy of observation. (A few representative opinions are quoted on the back of this jacket.) And, while Miss Moore has been less prolific as a writer of prose, her work in this field bears her hallmark of incisiveness and grace. Her first American publication was in the May 1915 issue of Petry. She contributed simultaneously to the English magazine, The Egoist. Two members of the group surrounding this magazine, H. D. and the novelist Bryher, without Miss Moore's knowledge brought out Poems, a small collection of her verse, in 1921. For Observations, which came three years later, she was given the Dial Award "for distinguished service to American Letters." Selected Poems (1935), The Pangolin and Other Verse (1936), What Are Years (1941), and Nevertheless (1944), followed. The Collected Poems was published in 1951, making a clean sweep of the year's most esteemed poetry honors: the Pulitzer Prize, the National Book Award, and the Bollingen Prize. Like a Bulwark appeared in 1956, O to Be a Dragon in 1959; her translation of The Fables of La Fontaine was issued in 1954. Among Miss Moore's other awards, too widesspread to enumerate here, are a Guggenheim Fellowship, the National Institute of Arts and Letters Gold Medal, the M. Carey Thomas Prize from Bryn Mawr, and the Harriet Monroe Poetry Award of the University of Chicago. Literature, Poetry, Pose, Americana, Women's Literature. zxsli.
