About This Book

"Harold Bloom's Centenary critical essay is a full-scale analysis of Crane's achievement. Bloom emphasizes Crane's creative agon with T. S. Eliot's work, which Crane could neither evade nor accept." "The introduction also examines the positive relation of Crane's poetic stance to the heroic example of Walt Whitman, Crane's chosen precursor, together with Emily Dickinson.".

"Defending the unity of The Bridge, Bloom analyzes the "Proem: To Brooklyn Bridge" and the concluding section, "Atlantis." He also gives particular emphasis to Crane's last great poem, "The Broken Tower.""--BOOK JACKET.
