First Sentence

WRITING in self-willed exile to an ex-student from a cottage in Beaconsfield, England, which he called "The Bung-Hole";still deep in literary obscurity - though not quite as deep as the obscurity he had experienced in America in the previous twenty years; writing in November 1913, with his first book out and warmly reviewed by the right sort of people, Ezra Pound among them, and with a second and maybe even a third book waiting in the wings, Robert Frost hatched the plot of his return to the United States as the first step in his cunning pursuit of the fame that would eventually become the means of supporting himself and his family.
