Note
  • "Immigrant radicalism bumps head-on into the Cold War in these evocative materials out of the life of poet and union organizer Vincent Ferrini. Like Charles Olson, Ferrini came to symbolize a poet’s relationship to the local politics of Gloucester, MA—a working city. A selection of poems, some never published and others exceedingly rare, correspondence from Ferrini’s close friend Myer “Mike” Hecht, and accompanying essays provide historical context to this key moment in US history."--Publisher's website.
