Description

This 1937 edition of “Conversation at Midnight” by Edna St. Vincent Millay is a remarkable find for collectors and lovers of 20th-century American poetry. Millay, the first woman to win the Pulitzer Prize for Poetry, was a leading figure of the literary renaissance of the 1920s. Her works, known for their lyrical beauty and exploration of themes like love, feminism, and nature, captured the spirit of a generation disillusioned by World War I.

“Conversation at Midnight” is a poignant collection that showcases Millay’s mastery of language and her ability to evoke powerful emotions through her verse. This 10th printing by Harper & Brothers, published just two years after the book’s initial release, is a testament to its enduring popularity and Millay’s status as a literary icon.

While the dust jacket is missing, the book itself is in good condition, with clean pages and a secure binding, allowing readers to immerse themselves in Millay’s poetic world. This copy offers a unique opportunity to connect with a pivotal era in American literature and experience the timeless brilliance of one of its most celebrated voices.
