About this title: Stanford's California home is the setting of these poems lush with flora and fauna. Her former students Trinidad and Scates edited this volume of her work, restoring to readers her richly described landscapes where metaphoric implications abound. Stanford (1916-1987) was the protege of Yvor Winters, and her early poems manifest his poetic, while later work is shaped by her own modernist voice.
