{ "item_title" : "The Writings of Emilie Glen 3", "item_author" : [" Brett Rutherford", "Emilie Glen "], "item_description" : "This expanded second edition contains 74 newly-discovered poems by Emilie Glen.For more than four decades, New York City poet Emilie Glen produced a torrent of poetry, widely published in little magazines all over the world, and in a series of books and chapbooks that went through numerous reprints. Yet when the poet died in 1995, all that remained of her papers were several shopping bags full of manuscripts, chapbooks, and tear sheets of already-published works. From this legacy, Brett Rutherford has assembled all the presently-available poems of this prolific New York poet. This volume, in its first edition presented 193 recovered poems that appeared in magazines and newspapers, but were not included in Glen's many chapbooks. Now, 74 more poems have been added. None of thesepoems exist in manuscript. Because the works are here in the order discovered, the book's randomness invites at-random reading. Open anywhere, and the Emilie Glen we know from the first volume is still here in spades: poet, actress, pianist, bird-watcher, cat-lover, nature rhapsodist, the woman of Manhattan with a piercing eye for characterand image. She is the city, the street, the windows, the bridges and tunnels, the parks and fountains, the desperate dreamers on the doorsteps. This volume also includes the full text of an out-of-print chapbook from 1963 titled Laughing Lute and Other Poems. This is the 314th publication of The Poet's Press.", "item_img_path" : "https://covers4.booksamillion.com/covers/bam/9/79/832/015/9798320159003_b.jpg", "price_data" : { "retail_price" : "16.95", "online_price" : "16.95", "our_price" : "16.95", "club_price" : "16.95", "savings_pct" : "0", "savings_amt" : "0.00", "club_savings_pct" : "0", "club_savings_amt" : "0.00", "discount_pct" : "10", "store_price" : "" } }
