The best works of one of America's most important poets appear in this first-rate collection of verse by Wallace Stevens (1879-1955). Witty ironic, and thought-provoking. Stevens' experimental style forever changed the landscape of modern poetry, and survey of 20th-century poetry is complete without a consideration of his work. This new edition features 66 poems, including such well-kwn and often-studied poems as The Emperor of Ice-Cream, Disillusionment of Ten O'Clock, Anecdote of the Jar, Peter Quince at the Clavier, and Thirteen Ways of Looking at Blackbird. In addition, 21 uncollected poems -- including The Florist Wears Knee-Breeches and The Man Whose Pharynx Was Bad -- complete this extensive, modestly price compilation of works by an ermously influential poet.
