Book Description
April Twilights is a collection of poems that was first printed in 1903, but Cather redrafted and expanded it significantly in a 1923 edition titled April Twilights and Other Poems. This edition includes all of the poems in both versions of April Twilights, as well as several initially uncollected and unpublished poems by Cather, as well as an enlightening selection of her newly released letters. In this collection, Cather demonstrates both a finely tuned sensitivity to the beauties of the material realm and richly metaphorical use of mythical scenery in lyrical poems such as "The Hawthorn Tree," "Winter at Delphi," "Prairie Spring," "Poor Marty," and "Going Home." The themes that would animate her later poems first appeared in these poignant, evocative ballads and sonnets.
