About This Item
New York: Harper & Brothers Publishers, 1934. First edition. Title-page printed in black and red. 8vo, printer’s original blue paper-covered boards back in black linen, the spine with a paper label printed in black, black linen corner pieces. 91pp. Internally a fine copy, the binding paper and cloth in excellent condition as well but for a touch of fading to the colour. FIRST EDITION. This is Millay's "heartfelt tribute to the magnificence of man," which predicts the eventual extinction of mankind with its last section, Epitaph For the Race of Man. The work was composed as Millay reflected on events in Europe and was convinced that the world seemed ready to go to war yet again.
