SPLENDID FAILURE:
Hart Crane and the Making of THE BRIDGE

By Edward J. Brunner

Urbana and Chicago: University of Illinois Press, (1985).

 First edition, first printing.

Brunner traces the growth of Hart Crane's poetic abilities and his struggle to write THE BRIDGE, his epic poem to America.

 The author argues the 1926 version was much better than the final one published in 1930.

Fine and tight in fresh salmon linen, salmon-and-yellow headband and tail-band; in a fine crisp dust jacket.

Octavo; 282 pages; appendices; notes; index.
