Auden for the Yale Younger Poets Prize, this volume spans a dozen of his most important collections.Ashbery supervised the publication of the present volume; he specified which variant readings he prefers, approved teh editor's correction of a few unambiguous typographical errors, and advised about stanza breaks where it is not clear from teh original printings whether a page break is also a stanza break--Note on the texts, p. 1007.
