May Out West

the long version

This new collection of May Swenson's poems takes the West as its focus and field of vision. As the West was a place of inspiration to her, and of origin, the book gathers her work about the region into a memorable and inspiring collection. Some of Swenson's best-known poems are included, along with some that have never been collected before. Swenson scholars will also note that two poems are published here for the first time and that four other poems here reflect final revisions made by the poet after previous publication.
