Robinson was born in Head Tide, Lincoln County, Maine, but his family moved to Gardiner, Maine, in 1870. He described his childhood in Maine as "stark and unhappy." Robinson's early difficulties led many of his poems to have a dark pessimism and his stories to deal with "an American dream gone awry." Edwin Arlington Robinson won the Pulitzer Prize for Poetry three times: in 1922 for his first "Collected Poems", in 1925 for "The Man Who Died Twice", and in 1928 for "Tristram." .
