Books in the The Complete Works of W.H. Auden series

W H Auden's first ten years in the United States were marked by rapid and extensive change in his life and thought.

This volume contains prose that Auden wrote during these years, including essays and reviews he published under pseudonyms.

A volume of Auden and Chester Kallman's libretti, it includes historical and textual notes tracing the history of the production and revision of the works, and provides full texts of early scenarios, as well as abandoned and rewritten scenes.
