Edwin Arlington Robinson bol americký básnik, ktorého diela sa často ponárajú do temného pesimizmu a zaoberajú sa „americkým snom, ktorý sa pokazil“. Jeho básne skúmajú životy obyčajných ľudí, zachytávajú ich vnútorné boje a sklamania. Robinsonov štýl je charakteristický svojou realističnosťou a prenikavým pohľadom na ľudskú psychiku. Napriek svojim skorým ťažkostiam si Robinson vybudoval jedinečný literárny hlas, ktorý dodnes rezonuje s čitateľmi.
