Conrad Aiken, born 1889 - 1973, was an American born poet and
novelist who won the Pulitzer Prize in 1930. He also wrote novels, and whilst
good, are not quite as highly regarded as his verse. As can be seen from the
bibliography most of his work was not issued in Britain, although one or two
books have English precedence, these, along with alternative titles, have been
duly noted.
All of the books listed are of collectable interest and value,
that said none fetch huge sums and a committed collector with a reasonable
budget should be able to put together an impressive collection of the authors
first editions.
