"Those persons who never long to be in the country except when it is insufferably hot in the city will not, I think, be greatly attracted to this book.
For it will be to them like a book in a language with which they are unacquainted," proclaims Edna St.
Vincent Millay in her foreword.
"Read these poems too swiftly, or only once, and your heart may still be free of them.
Read them again, with care, and they will lay their hands upon you.
" Previously published in The Nation, The Forum, and others, this is American poet Abbie Huston Evans' (18811983) first collection of poetry in book form.
