to this was the book's unwilling dedicatee, Robert Frost, who wrote privately to Louis Untermeyer of his disgust and perplexity:You won't take it as an infringement of the liberty of the press if I ask you not to connect me with the book any more than you have to in your reviewing and lecturing. Don't you find the contemplation of their kind of collusion emasculating? I am chilled to the marrow, as in the actual presence of some foul form of death where none of me can function, not even my habitual interest in versification.
