This autographed copy of “Selected Poems” by Daisy Detrick offers a unique opportunity for collectors and poetry enthusiasts alike. Detrick, a lesser-known figure in 20th-century American literature, was part of the vibrant Greenwich Village literary scene in the 1920s and 1930s. Her work, often overshadowed by her contemporaries, explored themes of love, nature, and the human condition with a delicate yet profound lyricism.
While the dust jacket shows signs of age and wear, the book’s interior remains remarkably well-preserved, with only minor highlighting and some expected yellowing to the page edges. The author’s signature adds a personal touch, connecting the reader directly to the creative mind behind these carefully crafted verses. This volume serves as a testament to the enduring power of poetry and the importance of preserving literary voices that may have been overlooked in their time.
