About this book

This study examines several unexplored aspects of the poetry of Robert Frost, one of the most widely read and studied American poets, and shows how they contribute to the reader's experience and modernism in general.

Reviews

"A thorough treatment of the oft-neglected postmodern strains of Frost's poetry. Such a book on Frost's linguistic play is long overdue." - Robert Bernard Hass, author of Going by Contraries: Robert Frost's Conflict with Science and former President of the Robert Frost Society

"O'Brien's attention to genre, to Frost's elusive and 'tricky' philosophy makes this book not only timely but also necessary to the current discussion on Frost. . .this book will be of great interest to all scholars and students of modernism generally." - Jonathan Barron, Associate Professor of English, University of Southern Mississippi and author of New Formalist Poets
