Summer Doorways: A Memoir.
Shoemaker, Hoard Publishers, 2005. First Printing of the First US Edition. A Fine tight copy in a Fine unclipped dust jacket. Summer Doorways captures Merwin at a pivotal time in his life, just a few years before he won the Yale Younger Poets Award in 1952 for his first book, A Mask for Janus. The moment was, as the author writes, “an entire age just before it was gone, like a summer.” Traveling with him through his “splendidly detailed and sensuous descriptions,” readers have the privilege of glimpsing “recollections that capture lost time and trace the making of a poet”.
