Robert Hayden was one of the most important American poets of the
twentieth century. He left behind an exquisite body of work,
collected in this definitive edition, including A Ballad of
Remembrance, Words in the Mourning Time, The Night-Blooming Cereus,
Angle of Ascent, and American Journal, which was nominated for a
National Book Award. Also included is an introduction by American
poet Reginald Dwayne Betts, as well as an afterword by Arnold
Rampersad that provides a critical and historical context. In
Hayden s work the actualities of history and culture became the
launching places for flights of imagination and intelligence. His
voice characterized by musical diction and an exquisite feeling for
the formality of pattern is a seminal one in American life and
literature."
