More than 180 sonnets selected from Millay's books of poems--including
20 sonnets from Mine the Harvest not contained in previous editions of
her *Collected Sonnets--*are brought together in this expanded edition.
An introduction by Norma Millay, written expressly for this volume,
focuses on examples of the poet's variations in sonnet structure. Here
is the voice of Millay, whose prophetic vision, devotion to freedom, and
intellectual daring combine with her mastery of the sonnet form to speak
eloquently for the human spirit.
