解説
This beautifully produced first annotated edition of Edna St. Vincent Millay's oeuvre re-presents the work of the Jazz Age's most famous poet
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has compiled and annotated a new selection that represents the full range of her published work alongside previously unpublished manuscript excerpts, poems, prose, and correspondence.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.
