But you got to try hard--" So that readers could more fully understand the extent of Williams' radical simplicity, all of his published poetry (excluding "Patterson") was issued in these 2 definitive hardcover volumes in 1986 & 1988., this first volume of "The Collected Poems of William Carlos Williams", covering the years 1909 through 1939, begins w/ the first collection of poems Williams wished to preserve, "The Tempers" (1913), & includes successive volumes through "Adam & Eve & The City" (1936) w/ their contents intact. Uncollected poems of ea. period are inserted between individual volumes in order of first publication. This careful attention to chronology enables the reader to chart the large contours of Williams' early career & to appreciate the enormous advances in technique he made during his first decade as a poet.
