POETRY & DRAMA NEW & SELECTED
I had to to separate my new books into categories of fiction, nonfiction, and poetry. It’s a good problem to have — too many good books to feature. I am going to be discriminating and probably slow to work on the poetry page. I have a large poetry section in the store, but I have not considered most of it for listing before. Look forward to a steady and deliberate listing of a wide variety of poetry and lyrics books in the days to come.

The Rock [Counterpoints Series]
The Rock is the last book of poems assembled by Wallace Stevens, and it was added to the text of what became The Collected Poems of Wallace Stevens, published in 1954. Born in Reading, Pennsylvania, in 1879, Stevens died in Hartford, Connecticut, on August 2, 1955. This is the first separate publication of this remarkable collection of late poems.
