Publisher's original full black cloth, gilt lettering on spine and cover, fore and bottom edges deckle. “Between 1915 and 1920 she became a celebrity in bohemian Greenwich Village and by 1920 was known as the voice of her generation - full of freshness, gaiety, and implied rebellion. Though her style remained largely traditional, romantic, and lyrical, her free spirit spoke for modernism in the arts during the Jazz Age. In 1923 her third volume of poetry won the first Pulitzer Prize attained by a woman poet” (Library of Congress). [Bruccoli & Clark, IV:265][Yost 3] [Hart, 492] .
