Description: April Twilights and Other Poems [SIGNED] Author: Cather, Willa Title: April Twilights and Other Poems [SIGNED] Publication: New York: Alfred A. Knopf, 1923 Edition: First printing Description: Hardcover. 8vo. 66, (2)pp. Parchment spine strip lettered in black, over floral patterned boards. Edition limited to 450 numbered copies (this is #196) of a total printing of 1923. Signed and numbered on the limitation leaf by Willa Cather. Spine strip somewhat toned and lettering a bit effaced. Some minor, neat underlining of two of the poems. Small chips at extremities of spine and parts of the outer hinges have small splits but the binding is holding soundly. Boards are lightly rubbed (affecting title on spine which is partially effaced), but this is still an attractive copy of a scarce book (currently there is only one other limited, signed first edition being offered for sale online). Contents: "Grandmither, think not I forget" -- Fides, spes -- The tavern -- The hawthorn tree -- The poor minstrel -- Antinous -- London roses -- Winter at Delphi -- Paradox -- In media vita -- Evening song -- Lament for Marsyas -- "I sought the wood in winter" -- "Sleep, minstrel, sleep" -- In rose-time -- Poppies on Ludlow Castle -- Prairie dawn -- Aftermath -- Thou art the pearl -- Arcadian winter -- Provençal legend -- The encore -- Song -- L'envoi -- The palatine -- The Gaul in the capitol -- A likeness -- The Swedish mother -- Spanish Johnny -- Autumn melody -- Prairie spring -- Macon prairie -- Street in Packingtown -- A silver cup -- Recognition -- Going home.
