On the anniversary of Wallace Stevens’s death–a new edition of his Collected Poems, containing more than 150 corrections based on original manuscripts and published versions. A VINTAGE ORIGINAL.
An essential book for all readers of poetry, and the definitive collection from the man Harold Bloom has called \”the best and most representative American poet.\”
Originally published in 1954 to honor Stevens’s seventy-fifth birthday, the book was rushed into print for the occasion and contained scores of errors. These have now been corrected in one place for the first time by Stevens scholars John N. Serio and Christopher Beyers, based on original editions and manuscripts.
The Collected Poems is the one volume that Stevens intended to contain all the poems he wished to preserve, presented in the way he wanted. It is an enduring monument to his dazzling achievement.
