Aspects of Modern Poetry by Edith SitwellSiegfried Sassoon's copy[SASSOON, Siegfried (1886-1967).] SITWELL, Edith (1887-1964). Aspects of Modern Poetry. London: Duckworth, 1934. Siegfried Sassoon's copy, energetically annotated with watercolors, pasted-in clippings, nasty comments, printed manicules, and more. He has pasted, on the title page, below Sitwell’s name “Literary Ass,” and included the quote: “I Have often wished I had time to cultivate modesty.. But I am too busy thinking about myself. – Dr Edith Sitwell.” Later, next to her comment on “that extremely bad poet Emily Dickinson” Sassoon has pasted “FOOLISH TALK.” Sitwell reliably distinguished herself with acerbic remarks on her contemporaries and here her good friend Sassoon returns the favor. The present work includes chapters on T.S. Eliot, Gerard Manley Hopkins, Sacherevell Sitwell (her brother), and Ezra Pound. Octavo. Publisher’s cloth (spine slightly faded).
