This groundbreaking edition compiles many of the late unpublished works of American writer Djuna Barnes (1892?1982). Because she published only seven poems and a play during the last forty years of her life, scholars believed Barnes wrote almost nothing during this period. But at the time of her death her apartment was filled with multiple drafts of unpublished poetry and notes toward her memoirs, both included here for the first time. Best known for her tragic lesbian novel Nightwood, Barnes has always been considered a crucial modernist. Her later poetry will only enhance this reputation as it shows her remarkable evolution from a competent young writer to a deeply intellectual poet in the metaphysical tradition. With the full force of her biting wit and dramatic flair, Barness autobiographical notes describe the expatriate scene in Paris during the 1920s, including her interactions with James Joyce and Gertrude Stein and her intimate recollections of T. S. Eliot. These memoirs provide a rare opportunity to experience the intense personality of this complex and fascinating poet.

I ordered this book as a gift, but it arrived with a dented cover. Super disappointing! The content seems great, but I can't give a damaged book as a present. Hopefully, the next copy will be in better shape.

Interesting but Lacked Some Depth
The collected poems are quite nice, but I expected more from the notes. They felt a bit surface-level and didn't dive deep into the poet's life as I hoped. Still, the selection of poems is solid and enjoyable for casual reading.

A Great Read for Poetry Lovers
I bought this collected poems book for my friend who loves poetry, and she absolutely adores it! The notes included help shed light on the context of each poem, which makes for a deeper understanding. It's beautifully compiled, and the hardcover feels really nice to hold.
