The Little Book of Modern Verse; a selection from the work of contemporaneous American poets
"The Little Book of Modern Verse", as its name implies,is not a formal anthology. The pageant of American poetryhas been so often presented that no necessity existsfor another exhaustive review of the art. Nearly all anthologies, however, stop short of the present group of poets, or represent them so inadequately that only those in close touch with the trend of American literature know what the poet of to-day is contributing to it.It is strictly, then, as a reflection of our own period,to show what is being done by the successors of our earlier poets, what new interpretation they are giving to life, what new beauty they have apprehended, what new art they have evolved, that this little book has taken form. --This text refers to the Kindle Edition edition.
