Download or read book On Extended Wings written by Helen Vendler and published by Harvard University Press. This book was released on 1969 with total page 352 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Though Wallace Stevens' shorter poems are perhaps his best known, his longer poems, Vendler suggests in this book, deserve equal fame and equal consideration. She proposes that Stevens development as a poet can best be seen, not in description--which must be repetitive--of the abstract bases of his work, but rather in a view of his changing styles.
