Amy Lowell 
Men, Women and Ghosts 

Part of the Imagist School, poet Amy Lowell, won a Pulitzer Price for her poetry in 1926. This is neither a book of poetry nor a book of stories. It falls delightfully somewhere in between. Narrative poems might best describe these tales. There are also lyrics in which air. Clouds, trees etc. could be describes as the main characters.

The imagist school was founded by Ezra Pound but later defined by Lowell. Simple speech is favoured over lyricism, freedom of rhythm over the metrical, clarity over opacity. The fancy term for prose where anything goes sounds good, but is it?
