"The choicest items are 23 letters in which
Faulkner answered questions about his
works ... but 11 Cowley letters
to
Faulk–
ner show him as an editor of taste tact
and intelligence."-JOSEPH BLOTNER,

Times Book Re1Jiew.
"Both Faulkner's let–
ters and Cowley's reminiscences are infor–
mative, and Cowley'S closing tribute
to
his
distinguished friend is wise
as
well
as
warmhearted."--GRANVlLLE HICKS,

A brilliant study of the generation of
tal–
ented writers who emerged in the
transi–
tional 1890s, introducing new notes into
the main stream of American letters, some
of them not recognized until much later.
"An extremely intelligent work of literary
history-beautifully informed, strong
and
sensitive in conception, powerfully argued.
An excellent book."-ALFRED KAZIN

Strength and simplicity mark these new
poems by the Lamont Prize-winning author

"A testa–
ment so terse, so mature, that the words
in
it seem blown by the oldest wind on earth
