Poems to a Glass Woman

The previously unpublished poems in this collection record the immediate impact of James K. Baxter’s first serious love affair. It was a relationship that affected him profoundly and to which he returned time and time again in his later work. Poems to a Glass Woman is published for the 40th anniversary of Baxter’s death. It includes a biographical essay by the editor, John Weir–a close friend and confidant of Baxter, who has been the editor of the major editions of the poet’s work.
