Description

James Hearst (1900-83) was celebrated as the Robert Frost of the Midwest, for his carefully wrought poems that drew from his roots as an Iowa farmer-poet. He published over 600 poems throughout his career, and his work was recognized in the 2001 collection, The Complete Poetry of James Hearst. Now, an unexpected discovery of previously unpublished James Hearst poems forms the core of Planting Red Geraniums: Discovered Poems of James Hearst. This collection provides an important addition to the canon of the poetry of James Hearst. 19 previously unpublished poems and four uncollected works offer insights into Hearst's creative process and introduces readers to poems that are as significant as the best of his previously published work.-- Provided by Publisher
