Book summary


Robert Hayden was one of the most important African American poets of the twentieth century, and a celebrant of the black experience.


Media reviews


"Hayden was a remembrancer, a poet of faith and superb execution, and one of the best teachers by example one can find in the poetry of the twentieth century, or any age. His words enhance and engage us as awakened selves, a nation in process, an abiding transcendent world voice."
