(1899-1988)
| 1925 | Those Not Elect. Adams's first collection features a style that critic Allen Tate places "somewhere between the eighteenth-century decoration and the fresh intensity of a lyric by Thomas Heyward or Greene." Noteworthy poems include "Death and the Lady," "Discourse with the Heart," and "Thought's End." High Falcon, a second volume, would follow in 1929. Adams taught English at New York University, Bennington College, and Columbia. |
