1922: Collected Poems by Edwin Arlington Robinson

He won the Pulitzer Prize three times in the 1920s, and he was described as "more artful than Hardy and more coy than Frost and a brilliant sonneteer".

In The Norton Anthology of Modern Poetry, editors Richard Ellmann and Robert O'Clair compared and contrasted Frost's unique style to the work of the poet Edwin Arlington Robinson since they both frequently used New England settings for their poems.
