Katherine Anne Porter's Poetry makes available for the first time the complete poetic canon of one of America's most-celebrated writers. Revered for her award-winning short stories, Porter published just thirty-two poems and poetry translations, although she composed and subsequently destroyed hundreds. From fragmentary notes and letters found among Porter's papers, Darlene Harbour Unrue has recovered and edited eighteen unpublished poems. It is a significant addition to the Porter canon, the newly found poems join Porter's published verse, including the entire text of the now-rare Katherine Anne Porter's French Song-Book, to create a unique commentary on the writer's life and work.
