"Irving Feldman's body of work exhibits his mastery of language from the biblical to the conversational, his Yiddish flair for the comic, his profound social insight and lucidity. He writes about everything from the Coney Island days of his childhood and his bohemian years in postwar New York to the art of Picasso and George Segal, from the Holocaust to its aftermath." "The gathering of poems displays Feldman's entire career in all its variety and passion, and confirms his place among the great poets of our time"-- Jacket.
