ROBERT FROST

From a hired hand who finally comes home, to a man who will never walk the New England woods again for his beloved native orchids, Robert Frost paints his metaphors into the lives of country people in a rich and formidable land.

These 17 pieces are from Robert Frost’s modernist masterpiece, “North of Boston” first published in 1914.
