Octavo, brown cloth (hardcover), black spine label, gilt lettering, xxi, 293 pp. Fine in a Fine dust jacket. From dust jacket: Here published for the first time are nearly two hundred letters written by the poet Robert Frost and his wife Elinor to their children, grandchildren, and other members of the family. What emerges is a precise and revealing testament to the intensity of their lives, a chronological enumeration of nearly fifty years of trial and triumph. Robert Frost's letters -- three-fourths of the volume -- touch importantly and often at considerable length on such topics as his relationships with other writers, his views on education both as parent and teacher, his financial worries, family pride, mastery of fear and uncertainty, and his judgments on a comprehensive variety of literary matters. Included are early drafts of his poetry, the summary of an Amherst College class lecture, and a preface fragment which was never used. Elinor Frost's letters offer a first full-legnth portrait of the thoughtful and sensitive woman who was so fully involved in her husband's life as poet poet ad parent. Beyond her concerns both maternal and domestic are reports of interesting visitors, of life in a college community, the challenges of uncertain moves, and the exigencies of an undependable family income. Her letters serve a three-way purpose -- as significant variations to themes established in her husband's correspondence, as counter-point to his judgments, and as an independent record. The majority of these letters is addressed to the Frost's eldest daughter Lesley, now one of two surviving children and a family spokesman. She is coached extensively by her parents while a student at Wellesley and Barnard, as an attractive and eligible working girl, as writer and teacher, and as wife and mother. Along with this liberal counsel, she is the recipient of frequent confidential asides and what amounts to family "position papers." This book serves as an invaluable document for any study of Robert Frost, of modern American literature, and of the crucial demands which are imposed by the literary market place. Family Letters of Robert and Elinor Frost includes pertinent notes, photographs, a selection of facsimiles, and a comprehensive index.
