Edwin Arlington Robinson

Edwin Arlington Robinson was an American poet who won three Pulitzer Prizes for his work. Robinson was born in Head Tide, Lincoln County, Maine, but his family moved to Gardiner, Maine, in 1870. He described his childhood in Maine as "stark and unhappy"Robinson's early difficulties led many of his poems to have a dark pessimism and his stories to deal with "an American dream gone awry".In 1896 he self-published his first book, "The Torrent and the Night Before", paying 100 dollars for 500 copies. His second volume, "The Children of the Night", had a somewhat wider circulation.Edwin Arlington Robinson won the Pulitzer Prize for Poetry three times: in 1922 for his first "Collected Poems", in 1925 for "The Man Who Died Twice", and in 1928 for "Tristram".Retrieved from Wikipedia: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Edwin_Ar...
