Robert Frost<br />
Even though Frost did not want to<br />
leave Engl<strong>and</strong>, he did in 1915 <strong>and</strong> moves to<br />
New Engl<strong>and</strong> once again where he publishes<br />
another collection, Mountain Interval, which<br />
contains themes <strong>of</strong> isolation, loneliness, <strong>and</strong><br />
fear. Some <strong>of</strong> his popular poems from this<br />
collection include “Birches” <strong>and</strong> “The Road<br />
Not Taken.” In 1961 Frost had the honor <strong>of</strong><br />
reading one <strong>of</strong> his poems at the inauguration <strong>of</strong><br />
President Kennedy, as well as travel to the<br />
Soviet Union for a diplomatic exchange<br />
(Meyers 181-2). Some other works include, but<br />
do not limit to, New Hampshire (1924),<br />
Collected Poems (1930), A Further Range<br />
(1937), <strong>and</strong> A Witness Tree (1943), all <strong>of</strong><br />
which won Pulitzer Prizes. Two years later on<br />
January 29, 1963, Robert Frost passed away<br />
from infected blood clots <strong>and</strong> pulmonary<br />
embolisms.
