Wallace Stevens

Lee M. Jenkins

"This revisionary study of Wallace Stevens queries the dominant interpretations of the poet's career. It redirects the reader's attention to the neglected achievement of Stevens's first book, Harmonium (1923), and examines the pluralism of these early poems in the context of current critical revaluations of modernisms." "The originality of this book lies in its new interpretation of Stevens, and in its British (and Irish) viewpoint. A principal contribution is the extended discussion of Stevens's relationship with the Irish poet Thomas MacGreevy."--BOOK JACKET.
