On the 130th anniversary of the birth of the North American poet, playwright and feminist, Edna St. Vincent Millay, and on the cusp of the 100th anniversary of the awarding of the Pulitzer Prize for Poetry, for «The Ballad of the Harp Weaver», we recover one of the most influential female creative voices in 20th century culture, the modernist current and the interwar avant-gardes of the 1920s and 1930s.

The price tag on the 435 acres, a farmhouse, and various barns and outbuildings, was $9,000.  Millay and Eugen moved quickly to secure the deal, and soon purchased another 300 acres as well. Millay named their new home “Steepletop” after the pink-flowered Steeplebush that grew wild in the fields and meadows there. “It
