Trade Paperback. Condizione: Very Good. First Printing Stated. 407 Pages Indexed. This is a complimentary book from a Santa Fe book shop and this is the fourth volume of a uniform edition of The Works of Witter Bynner, under the general editorship of James Kraft, issued under the auspices of The Witter Bynner Foundation for Poet…ry. Prose Pieces is a collection covering over sixty years of writing. As James Kraft writes in his introduction, "One finds throughout these essays Bynner's special interests: his pleasure in the expression of human character, especially when it shows the minority viewpoint; his commitment to democracy and humor - concepts he considered related; and his affinity for Mexico and China as societies that offered alternative ways of looking at the world." There is an interview with Henry James, written in 1905; a visit with George Meredith; essays on D. H. Lawrence, Edna Millay, Bertha Kalich, Ezra Pound, and Robinson Jeffers; accounts of life in the Southwest and of the Pueblo Indians reminiscences, reviews, and public letters. This collection reveals not only the wide range of Bynner's interests but his warmth, humor, and tolerance. Krupat, Cnthia - Design (illustratore).

Trade Paperback. Condizione: Very Good. First Printing Stated. 301 Pages. This is the 1978 First Printing and has a small label indicating it is a complimentary book from a Santa Fe book shop. It is the second volume of a uniform edition of The Works of Witter Bynner, under the general editorship of James Kraft, issued under the… auspices of The Witter Bynner Foundation for Poetry. It contains "Spectra," a famous literary hoax; "Cake," a play; "Guest Book," "New Poems 1960," and other examples of all three categories of light verse: epigrams and epitaphs, parodies, and non-sense. Witter Bynner {1881-1968} was at the center of the new American poetry movement in the teens and twenties. As a poet, biographer, playwright, critic, teacher, editor, Chinese translator, and man of letters, he deserves to be better known to readers today. Krupat, Cnthia - Design (illustratore).

Trade Paperback. Condizione: Very Good. First Printing Stated. 275 Pages Indexed. Selected from over 7,000 letters, most of them at the Houghton Library at Harvard, this concluding volume of The Works of Witter Bynner distills the eighty-seven years of Bynner's life (1881-1968). His correspondence describes travels to Mexico, to… China, and to Europe; his life in Boston, New Hampshire, New York, and Santa Fe. There are letters to D. H. Lawrence, Edna St. Vincent Millay, Harriet Monroe, Ezra Pound, Carl Sandburg, Marianne Moore, William Carlos Williams, Christopher Isherwood, Amy Lowell, Henry Miller, Carl Van Vechten, and many others. This collection represents the many aspects of a long and varied career spanning the transition from Gilded Age to Nuclear Age. Poet, critic, biographer, playwright, translator from the Chinese, editor, and man of letters, Witter Bynner deserves to be better known to contemporary readers. "He was not," writes James Kraft in his introduction to this volume, "except for a brief period in the late teens and the twenties, a member of our literary establishment-in fact, he later represented a movement away from the mainstream.
