Description: "This is the collected work of a major, versatile American poet passionately engaged with both public history and personal experience from the Holocaust and the Spanish Civil War to his love for New York City and his wife. The editors argue that his long poem sequence, Denmark Vesey, stands as the most ambitious poem about African American history ever written by a white American. Wicked Times includes previously unpublished poems and the first detailed account of Kramer's life, along with photos and extensive explanatory notes. Book jacket."--BOOK JACKET.
