A Poetics of Hiroshima - Paperback
by William Heyen (Author)
"William Heyen's music and meditations continue to amaze. I've now read and absorbed all the poems of A Poetics of Hiroshima. I am not ready to write anything about them, except to express my awe."--Cynthia Ozick
"A remarkable poet in whom the 'visionary' and the unblinkingly 'historical' are dramatically meshed. He writes with the wild, radiant audacity of the visionary; yet his eye and ear are sharp, unsparing."--Joyce Carol Oates
