Hart Crane Books

Hart Crane was an American poet whose works often explored themes of alienation and the search for spiritual fulfillment in the modern world. He frequently set his poetry in New York City, a place where he felt most at home. Crane believed his sense of being an outsider was necessary for him to achieve the visionary insight that formed the basis of his poetic work. His ambition was to bring spiritual events and possibilities to poetic life, thereby creating 'a mystical synthesis of America.'
