The poems in this evocative collection are written in the same vein as Masters’s tour de force, Spoon River Anthology. In free verse, Masters gives voice to a gathering of historical figures and fictitious characters who tell their stories—both the poignant and the sordid—from places as diverse as ancient Rome, Babylon, and the American Midwest. Among the selections are “Adelaide and John Wilkes Booth, ” and “Invocation to the Gods.”

Edgar Lee Masters (1868-1950) wrote more than twenty-five books of verse, four plays, several novels, an autobiography, and biographies of Lincoln, Twain, and Whitman. He also had a successful career as a lawyer in Chicago. Masters’s Spoon River Anthology, a collection of short free-form poems describing life and skewering hypocrisy in a small American town, is his best remembered work and a rare poetry bestseller.
