Collected Early Poems Robert Lavett Smith

COLLECTED EARLY POEMS brings together for the first time much of Robert Lavett Smith's unpublished early work, and more importantly, the complete texts of four long-out-of-print chapbooks. These titles comprise most poems of the first decades of his career that he has chosen to preserve. His first full-length collection, Everything Moves With A Disfigured Grace, is also included here in its entirety. The text has been diligently revisited and revised. This handsome volume provides a definitive edition of previously unavailable works by this rewarding poet, and is ideal for both old fans and new readers.
