Sword Blades and Poppy Seed
By Amy Lowell
Author of “The Dome of Many-Colored Glass.” etc.
Of the poets who today are doing the interesting and original work, there is no more striking and unique figure than Amy Lowell. The foremost member of the “Imagists”—a group of poets that includes William Butler Yeats, Ezra Pound, Ford Madox Hueffer—she has won wide recognition for her writing in new and free forms of poetical expression.
Miss Lowell’s present volume of poems, “Sword Blades and Poppy Seed,” is an unusual book. It contains much perhaps that will arouse criticism, but it is a new note in American poetry. Miss Lowell has broken away from academic traditions and written, out of her own time, real singing poetry, free, full of new effects and subtleties.
