Description

Marianne Moore (1887-1972) was a seminal figure in Modernist poetry, the winner of every major American literary prize, and one of the very first poets that T. S. Eliot attempted to bring to Faber and Faber.

Heather White has prepared an edition of poems that, for the first time, presents the full range of Marianne Moore's work in its published order, while honouring the complex textual lives of the poems. With an inviting introduction and meticulous notes, the New Collected Poems of Marianne Moore is the first definitive text of this most celebrated writer, whose poems form part, as Eliot acknowledged, of 'the small body of durable poetry written in our time'.
