The Complete Poems of Hart Crane
Hart Crane
Hart Crane has never achieved the recognition of some of his poetic contemporaries such as T. S. Eliot or Wallace Stevens, but he is recognized by other poets as a major influence. In an era when poetry was exploring modernist ideas, he clung more to a romantic tradition, applying it to the urban environment that he saw in New York. The turbulence of his personal life also played a role in his work. Join P. T. and Dr. C this week for a discussion of Crane’s life and work.
