Book Description
A sequence of sonnets written in ink and pencil, for Nancy Cunard, in draft form. Pasted in is a signed autograph letter (Oxford, 17 July 1920) explaining that the poems are "a little offering of M.S. of a certain Oh terribly famous bard" for Evan Morgan, Baron Tredegar, on his 27th birthday. The poems show Nichol's infatuated love for Cunard, which had only been encouraged by Cunard's resistance. Seemingly this manuscript is an earlier version of the sonnets than the manuscript he sent to Cunard herself. The drafts are heavily corrected, with alternative versions of stanzas, and include ruled and numbered grids to aid division of the poetic line.

Book Description
"We have many poets of the First Book," the poet and critic Louis Simpson remarked in 1957, describing a sense that the debut poetry collection not only launched the contemporary poetic career but also had come to define it. Surveying American poetry over the past hundred years, The First Book explores the emergence of the poetic debut as a unique literary production with its own tradition, conventions, and dynamic role in the literary market. Through new readings of poets ranging from Wallace Stevens and Marianne Moore to John Ashbery and Louise Glück, Jesse Zuba illuminates the importance of the first book in twentieth-century American literary culture, which involved complex struggles for legitimacy on the part of poets, critics, and publishers alike. Zuba investigates poets' diverse responses to the question of how to launch a career in an increasingly professionalized literary scene that threatened the authenticity of the poetic calling. He shows how modernist debuts evoke markedly idiosyncratic paths, while postwar first books evoke trajectories that balance professional imperatives with traditional literary ideals. Debut titles ranging from Simpson's The Arrivistes to Ken Chen's Juvenilia stress the strikingly pervasive theme of beginning, accommodating a new demand for career development even as it distances the poets from that demand. Combining literary analysis with cultural history, The First Book will interest scholars and students of twentieth-century literature as well as readers and writers of poetry.
