Gertrude Stein and Ezra Pound didn’t make the cut
for the Norton, so you’ll need to read their texts on the absolutely brilliant Poetry
Foundation website. Take time to surf around their pages and links. Keep
learning. You might also want to check out the Poetry Foundation resources for
Yeats and Eliot.
