Section: Poetry

From first to last, poetry was part of Edith Wharton’s writing life. While rarely (after early youth) her primary focus, it always served her as a medium for recording the most vivid impressions and emotions, an intimate journal of longings and regrets. In later years her poetry also engaged with the public passions of wartime, as she found herself involved with the plight of Allied soldiers in France.This volume collects the bulk of Wharton’s significant poetry, including much work previously uncollected or unpublished.
