Softcover, in Wraps. 1988. New York: Farrar, Strous, & Giroux. Cover Design by Guy Fleming, with Lowell’s Portrait on the Front Wrap. Sales Price of $12.95 on the Rear Wrap. 256 Pages. A Very Good+ Printing of Lowell’s Finest Poems with Minor Foxing to the Top Edge of the Text Block. The Spine is Tight and Uncracked. Internally Clean and Free of Writing. Wraps are in Very Good Shape with No Tears or Chips. SELECTED POEMS offers a comprehensive survey of the work of a master of autobiographical poetry, tracing Lowell’s evolution from the tight, formal work of his early years to the raw, personal explorations of “Life Studies” and “The Dolphin” that focused on his New England youth, mental illness, and his complex relationships with his three uber-talented wives: Lady Blackwood, Elizabeth Hardwick, and Jean Stafford. Per Lowell, this edition is slightly changed from the original 1976 edition, with a handful of poems printed without cuts and several additions and deletions in the “Dolphin” section. Includes more than 200 poems from the writer of “For The Union Dead.”
