Description
The first publication of Edna St. Vincent Millay’s private, intimate diaries, providing “a candid self-portrait
of the ‘bad girl of American letters’” (Kirkus Reviews) “Provides an occasion to revisit not just [Millay’s]
improbable life but also her sometimes revelatory work.”—Abigail Deutsch, Wall Street Journal “Rapture
and Melancholy paints a picture of artistic triumph, romantic tumult, and a daily life that descended into
addiction.”—Heather Clark, New York Times Book Review The English author Thomas Hardy proclaimed
that America had two great attractions: the skyscraper, and the poetry of Edna St. Vincent Millay. In these
diaries the great American poet illuminates not only her literary genius, but her life as a devoted daughter,
sister, wife, and public heroine; and finally as a solitary, tragic figure. This is the first publication of the
diaries she kept from adolescence until middle age, between 1907 and 1949, focused on her most productive
years. Who was the girl who wrote “Renascence,” that marvel of early twentieth-century poetry? What
trauma or spiritual journey inspired the poem? And after such celebrity why did she vanish into near
seclusion after 1940? These questions hover over the life and work, and trouble biographers and readers
alike. Intimate, eloquent, these confessions and keen observations provide the key to understanding Millay’s
journey from small-town obscurity to world fame, and the tragedy of her demise.
