Background

edit

The book was republished in 1920, and after making several alterations in the sequencing of the collection, Frost released a new edition in 1924.[citation needed] Five lyrics of the earlier collection were compiled next under the title "The Hill Wife". In this volume only three poems are written in dramatic monologue.
