Chapter VIII: Section THREE (4)
* _My Lady’s Book. By Gerald Gould._ (Kennerley: $1.00 net.) Twenty lyrics of pure song quality which are almost faultless in their perfection, though in a minor key. A volume to afford pure delight by its unaffected lyric quality.
_Poems. By Katharine Howard._ (Sherman, French: $1.00 net.) Minor verse in _vers libre_, which is frequently pleasing and always individual. It is the expression of a whimsical personality who wears her singing robes lightly, and who is most successful in verse of macabre suggestion.
* _Des Imagistes: An Anthology._ (Boni: $1.00.) The best collection of “imagiste” poetry, in which the work of Ford Madox Hueffer, F. S. Flint, Amy Lowell, and others is represented. There are many poems in the volume which will give pleasure, but as a collection it is uneven and rather tenuous. The work of F. S. Flint which it contains justifies the volume’s purchase.
_The Thresher’s Wife. By Harry Kemp._ (Boni: $.40 net.) A narrative poem well told in the manner of Masefield, whose influence upon it has been great.
* _Trees, and Other Poems. By Joyce Kilmer._ (Doran: $1.00 net.) The spirit of youth and grave faith expressed in lyric numbers. This slight little book defines a personality of poetic interest. The book shows less alien influence than most recent American poetry, and is quite individual in its affirmations. Though unassuming, the book will not meet with just treatment unless we recognize the fine lyric accomplishment of such poems as _Trees_ and _Martin_. Is this volume the prelude of a little Catholic Renaissance in American poetry?
* _The Shadow of Ætna. By Louie V. Ledoux._ (Putnam: $1.00 net.) Severely chaste poetry on classical models of distinguished beauty. They reveal fine intellectual feeling that recalls Shelley in its intensity and Arnold in its disciplined reticence. They have all the warmth of life seen against an eternal background, and a passionate message which cannot go unheeded.
* _The Sharing. By Agnes Lee._ (Sherman, French: $1.00 net.) Agnes Lee’s new book has all her familiar qualities, but in addition it presents a new criticism of life which reveals a feeling for human values akin in many respects to that of Browning. In its brevity and search for the polished word, it suggests the sculptor’s art, and many of these poems would have pleased Landor for their freight of suggestion and elemental simplicity.
* _Sword Blades and Poppy Seed. By Amy Lowell._ (Macmillan: $1.25 net.) A volume, not only of interesting experiment in _vers libre_ and exotic rhythms, but of notable accomplishment in poetry. Though associated with the “imagiste” school of English poetry, Miss Lowell’s talent is independent of it, and in her narrative and lyric poems alike one feels an artistic firmness and restraint which results in clear vision clearly sung. Best of all, this “imagiste” poetry is healthy and able to fight for its existence. In so far as it is derivative from French influences it adds a new note to English verse, and reveals a subtle use of free cadenced rhythms which is fully responsive to the mood and feeling of the poem. Far more genuine and spontaneous than Miss Lowell’s first volume.
_The Passing Singer and Other Poems. By Samuel Henry Marcus._ (Stratford Pub. Co.: $1.00 net.) A modest first volume which is likely to receive less attention than it deserves. Mr. Marcus has not yet found himself in poetry, but he sings the present condition of humanity sincerely and passionately. When he sings it simply, he will be more satisfying, but this volume will give pleasure to any one who really cares for poetry.
* _Poems. By Edward Sandford Martin._ (Scribner: $1.50 net.) The collected verse of the Editor of _Life_. Mellow Horatian philosophy and wit not yet frost-bitten by a man whom Dr. Johnson would have pronounced clubbable and with whom Boswells must feel uncomfortable.
_You and I. By Harriet Monroe._ (Macmillan: $1.25 net.) A bulky volume of verse by the editor of _Poetry: A Magazine Of Verse_. In it the social note is voiced strongly, and expression is given to many phases of modern effort, but its intellectual content rather overshadows its lyric quality.
* _The Sea is Kind. By T. Sturge Moore._ (Houghton-Mifflin: $1.50 net.) This is the first collection issued in America of the poems of an English craftsman of great distinction and power, whose chief weakness is an over-proportion of intellectual substance. He lacks the glow of beauty, and perhaps of beauty’s realization, but his work is literary craftsmanship of the highest order, and his metrical experiments are almost as significant as those of Mr. Bridges. Altogether the artistic product of a richly stored mind without aspiration or imaginative vision.
* _Saloon Sonnets: With Sunday Flutings. By Allen Norton._ (Claire-Marie: $1.25 net.) A volume less bizarre than its title implies. The sonnets bear evidence of _ueberkultur_, but occasionally surprise the reader by their pleasant lyric charm. They do not lack virility and enthusiasm.
_The Sister of the Wind. By Grace Fallow Norton._ (Houghton-Mifflin: $1.00 net.) A new volume by the author of _Little Gray Songs from St. Joseph’s_ which is most disappointing. In a poet of Miss Norton’s quality, it is inevitable that there should be always something to repay the reader, but this volume is singularly unrepresentative of Miss Norton’s real powers.
_Celtic Memories. By Norreys Jephson O’Conor._ (Lane: $1.00 net.) A first volume of some promise by a recent graduate of Harvard, whose Irish feeling is drawn directly from experience, but whose expression is still drawn chiefly from books.
* _The Ebon Muse and Other Poems by Léon Laviaux. Englished by John Myers O’Hara._ (Smith and Sale: $2.00 net.) Translations from the work of a young Creole poet, glorifying the “fille de couleur” in love poetry of original beauty. Differing from Latin and Oriental passion alike, it reveals a type of feminine beauty which is wholly new to Northern readers.
* _An Epilogue To the Praise of Angus and Other Poems. By Seumas O’Sullivan._ (Norman, Remington Co.: $.75 net.) A thin sheaf of delicate poems by one of the foremost poets of the New Ireland. Akin in certain aspects of his vision to “Æ,” who does not surpass him, his verses have more singing quality, and he is a successful experimenter in various new verse forms which reproduce cadences in ancient Irish music.
* _One Woman to Another, and Other Poems. By Corinne Roosevelt Robinson._ (Scribner: $1.25 net.) Dramatic monologues and sonnets of sharply etched lines whose competence is unquestionable, and a more satisfying reality of human feeling than in Mrs. Robinson’s previous volume. The volume will give much intellectual and some emotional pleasure, and in two or three lyrics the poet has achieved high ground.
* _Beyond the Breakers, and other Poems. By George Sterling._ (Robertson: $1.25 net.) This is Mr. Sterling’s first thoroughly satisfying book. It includes the superb “Ode on the Centenary of the Birth of Robert Browning,” and poems of such importance as “Tidal, King of Nations,” “Willy Pitcher,” “The Mission Swallows,” “Past the Panes,” and “You Never Can Tell.” We must call particular attention to the vision of the noble ode entitled “Beyond the Sunset.” With less opulent diction and heady imagination than Mr. Sterling’s earlier volumes, _Beyond the Breakers_ shows a disciplined vision expressed with a disciplined technique.
_Open Water. By Arthur Stringer._ (Lane: $1.00 net) A collection of delicate pictures expressing many frail and drifting moods phrased in _vers libre_ not yet quite sure of itself. The volume contains much quiet beauty, and is prefaced by a plea for _vers libre_ of considerable documentary and critical value. A volume which the lover of poetry can scarcely neglect.
_Idylls of Greece. Third Series. By Howard V. Sutherland._ (Fitzgerald: $1.00 net) Modest idylls of Greek fable telling with some passages of beauty the tales of “Idas and Marpessa,” “Rhodanthe,” “Sappho and Phaon,” and “Œnone.” The blank verse, though not firm, is of well-wrought texture, and Mr. Sutherland expresses feelingly the fleeting beauty of Pagan love and Hellenic landscape. Mr. Sutherland’s three volumes merit more attention than they have received.
_The Poems of François Villon. Translated by H. De Vere Stacpoole._ (Lane: $1.50 net) A convenient edition of Villon’s best work, in which a reasonably accurate text of the two Testaments and the best of the Ballades and Rondels is printed, together with a running commentary, a vivid introduction, and translations of some of the shorter poems with dubious success. However, the volume is the best popular service to Villon that has yet been performed in this country, and should be on the library shelf.
* _Little Verse for a Little Clan. By F.D.W._ (Published Privately: Not for Sale.) A slight little volume of thirty-five pages of delicate workmanship, which contain poems that make the book rank among the very best of the year. I know of very few books written by Americans which would afford the pleasure to discriminating readers that this volume would offer were it to be published in a form accessible to all. It is as delicate, at its best, as Beeching and Mackail’s _Love in Idleness_, and will please all lovers of _A Shropshire Lad_. It is just the sort of book which Mr. Mosher used to delight in finding for the American public. I shall be glad to give further information about it to inquirers.
_Eris: A Dramatic Allegory. By Blanche Shoemaker Wagstaff._ (Moffat, Yard, and Co.: $1.00 net.) A short dramatic allegory in which the elements of poetry are present, but which is hardly successful in fusing them into life. There are several pages of genuine poetry which prove the certainty of the poet’s ultimate accomplishment, and much competent craftsmanship. This is an honest book, whose weakness is that the imagination of the reader has no suggestive substance to feed upon.
_Justification: A Philosophic Phantasy. By John H. White._ (Richard G. Badger: $1.00.) A poem in four short cantos and though philosophic in conception is full of abstract idealisms. The author has a fruitful imagination, but his reasoning on the origin and destiny of human life is profound. The verse, though concrete, is flexible.
* _The Collected Poems of Margaret L. Woods._ (Lane: $1.50 net.) The definitive edition of the poetry and drama of a great weaver of words and emotion, who unites to much of Lionel Johnson’s repressed sombreness a sustained beauty of musical effect which was characteristic of the earlier poet. Mrs. Woods has performed for Oxford the poetic service that Johnson performed for Winchester, and in other poems has added new immortalities to Westminster Abbey’s crown. The plays are finely wrought and deeply felt, and together with the lyrics, place Mrs. Woods in the authentic English poetic line.
