Infos

The essential edition of one of modern poetrys most distinctive voices: all Stevie Smiths flabbergasting poems, now in paperbackStevie Smith is among the most popular British poets of the twentieth century. Her poem Not Waving but Drowning has been widely anthologized, and her life was celebrated in the classic movie Stevie. This new and updated edition includes hundreds of works from her thirty-five-year career. In addition to the poems and illustrations from all her published volumes, the Smith scholar Will May discovered never-before-published verses and provides fascinating details about their provenance. Satirical, mischievous, teasing, disarming, Stevie Smiths poems take readers from comedy to tragedy and back again, while her line drawings are by turns unsettling and beguiling.
