Pegasus in Pinfeathers: Collected Poems 1919-1928
ISBN-13: 9781502847362 / Angielski / Miękka / 2014 / 370 str.
In 1986, when going through his late mother Betty Ford's papers in her basement, her son Michael Aquino discovered a mouldering suitcase filled with the disintegrating manuscripts of poems she had written between ages 11-17, which she had never bothered to even mention. Along with them was an Introduction written by her Stanford mentor Professor Lewis Terman, for an intended publication entitled "Pegasus in Pinfeathers."
Astounded by these poems, Michael carefully pieced the fragments together, and so "Pegasus" is finally flying: 256 poems totaling over 35,000 words in this 366-page collection.
Far from what one would normally expect in juvenilia, Betty's verse explores not only the natural universe about her, but stunning metaphysical and magical visions of her own creation.
This edition includes Professor Terman's original 1929 Introduction, and a 2014 Foreword by Michael.
