Description: Times's Stop in Savannah examines the life and works of poet Conrad Aiken. The literary, spiritual, and psychological development of an often misunderstood figure of modern American literature is revealed in this study.

Since Aiken's death, he has gained increasing recognition as an important figure in modern literature. Times's Stop in Savannah shows how Aiken developed his vision of cosmic harmony. The ripe fruit of discovery can be found in his universally acclaimed autobiography Ushant, a work that begins in tragedy and ends in the triumphant vision of ever renewing life.
