Book Overview

  • Illustrations by Martine MacDonald
  • Poem by Wallace Stevens
Since its publication in Others: A Magazine of the New Verse in 1917, and later in the 1923 publication of Harmonium, "Thirteen Ways of Looking at a Blackbird" by Wallace Stevens has captivated readers with its sparse and elegant style. Among those enchanted with the poem is artist Martine MacDonald, who designed original illustrations as black "paper cuts" mounted on white paper, the images reduced to simplified elements of shape and space. The result is a delightful visual echo to Stevens's modernistic writing.

Wallace Stevens was born in Reading, Pennsylvania, in 1879 and died in Hartford, Connecticut, in 1955. Harmonium, his first volume of poems, was published in 1923, and was followed by Ideas of Order (1936), The Man with the Blue Guitar (1937), Parts of a World (1942), Transport to Summer (1947), The Auroras of Autumn (1950), The Necessary Angel (a volume of essays, 1951), The Collected Poems of Wallace Stevens (1954), and Opus Posthumous (1957; revised and corrected in 1989). Stevens was awarded the Bollingen Prize in Poetry of the Yale University Library for 1949. He twice won the National Book Award in Poetry and was awarded the Pulitzer Prize in Poetry in 1955. From 1916 on, he was associated with the Hartford Accident and Indemnity Company, of which he became vice president in 1934.
