Description
The autobiography of the influential American poet This intimate and provocative autobiography, first published in 1936, reveals the innermost thoughts of a great American poet.
Edgar Lee Masters was a transitional figure in American literature with one foot planted in the nineteenth century and the other firmly placed on the path of what we now think of as the modern period. Masters expounds on his own development as a poet and as a human being; he shares his views on American culture, politics, and the literary criticism of the times.
Masters's friends and acquaintances discussed here include some of the most prominent writers and politicians of his age. And he reflects on his life events that shaped, haunted, and inspired his writings of the classic Spoon River Anthology.
