The Dry Season by Malcolm Cowley (1941)


 The Dry Season

Malcolm Cowley

New Directions

Norfolk, CT

(c) 1941

Malcolm Cowley was a writer, talent scout, editor, historian, literary critic, and poet. He is most well known for his book Exiles Return by he was also the author of Blue Juniata a book of poetry that was published in 1929. 

This collection of poetry, staple-bound, marked his return to poetry as well as marking an evolutionary step for New Directions as it moved from chapbooks into books with spines. Unpaginated. A fine representation of Cowley's poetic work.
