North of Boston (1914) is a collection of poems by American poet Robert Frost. Following the success of Frost's debut, A Boy's Will (1913), North of Boston was published in London to enthusiastic reviews from both Ezra Pound and W.B. Yeats. His success abroad quickly translated to critical acclaim in the United States, and Frost would eventually be recognized as a leading American poet."Mending Wall" takes place in spring, as the people emerge from their homes to assess the damage done by the long, dark winter. Observing that parts of the stone wall on the edge of his property have fallen, the poet joins his neighbor "to walk the line / And set the wall between us once again." Although he feels they "do not need the wall," his neighbor insists that "'Good fences make good neighbours,'" continuing down the line to reinforce the space between them. A meditation on humanity, civilization, and democracy, "Mending Wall" is an iconic and frequently anthologized poem. In "After Apple-Picking," as fall gives over to winter, the poet remembers in dreams how the "Magnified apples appear and disappear, / Stem end and blossom end" as he climbs the ladder into the heart of the tree. Both a symbol for life and a metaphor for the poetic act, apple picking leaves the poet "overtired / Of the great harvest [he himself] desired", awaiting sleep as he describes "its coming on," wondering what, if anything, it will bring.With a beautifully designed cover and professionally typeset manuscript, this edition of Robert Frost's North of Boston is a classic of American literature reimagined for modern readers.

Robert Frost is a poet of memories and ghosts, silences and sorrows. His music is made by the rhythms of nature: the flutter of bats at dusk, the cry of the lone whippoorwill; his images lie in the earth for the moss and grapevines to cover. A Boy¿s Will is Frost¿s first collection of poems.

Selected Poems (1923) is a collection of poems by American poet Robert Frost. Dedicated to Edward Thomas, a friend of Frost's and an important English poet who died toward the end of the First World War, Selected Poems is a wonderful sampling of poems from Frost's early collections, including A Boy's Will and North of Boston. Known for his plainspoken language and dedication to the images and rhythms of rural New England, Robert Frost is one of America's most iconic poets, a voice to whom generations of readers have turned in search of beauty, music, and life."Mowing" envisions the poet's work through the prism of rural labor. "There was never a sound beside the wood but one / And that was my long scythe whispering to the ground. / What was it it whispered?" The speaker does not know, but continues his task, hypnotized by its rhythm and simple music. In "After Apple-Picking," as fall gives over to winter, the poet remembers in dreams how the "Magnified apples appear and disappear, / Stem end and blossom end" as he climbs the ladder into the heart of the tree. Both a symbol for life and a metaphor for the poetic act, apple picking leaves the poet "overtired / Of the great harvest [he himself] desired", awaiting sleep as he describes "its coming on," wondering what, if anything, it will bring. "The Road Not Taken," perhaps Frost's most famous poem, is a meditation on fate and free will that follows a traveler in an autumn landscape, unsure of which path to take, but certain he cannot stand still.With a beautifully designed cover and professionally typeset manuscript, this edition of Robert Frost's Selected Poems is a classic of American literature reimagined for modern readers.

Mountain Interval (1916) is a collection of poems by American poet Robert Frost. Having gained success with his first two collections, both published in London, Frost returned home to New Hampshire and completed his third volume, Mountain Interval. The book opens with "The Road Not Taken," and though this would become Frost's most famous poem, the collection is not defined by it. Here we find the hallmarks of Frost's work: rural landscapes, dramatic monologues, and subtle meditations on the meanings of life and art. This is Frost at the height of his power, a poetry that speaks as much and as often as it listens."The Road Not Taken" is a meditation on fate and free will that follows a traveler in an autumn landscape, unsure of which path to take, but certain he cannot stand still. Often summarized using only its final two lines-"I took the one less traveled by, / And that has made all the difference"-Frost's poem refuses such neat categorization. Far from simple praise of independence, "The Road Not Taken" examines the anxiety of choice, the psychic response to the uncertainty that precedes even the simplest decision. In "Birches," Frost recalls his childhood fondness for climbing trees, raising himself from the ground "To the top branches," only to fling himself "outward, feet first" back to earth. Against the backdrop of adulthood, in which "life is too much like a pathless wood," the poet recalls the simplicity and wonder of being a child in nature, no more and no less than "a swinger of birches.".With a beautifully designed cover and professionally typeset manuscript, this edition of Robert Frost's Mountain Interval is a classic of American literature reimagined for modern readers.

Birches beautifully illustrates Frost's celebrated ability to blend observation, imagination, and poetry. Caldecott medalist Ed Young uses his own powers of observation and imagination to create an extraordinary series of paintings that complement and extend the poem.
