The Candleis a record, unlike any other in literature, of an American poet's staring into the central atrocities of our Twentieth Century, of his struggle against soul-sickness as he attempts, over almost fifty years, by way of despised and barbaric poetry (in Theodor Adorno's terms), to find ways to realize (make real), to understand, and to remember. William Heyenis a former Senior Fulbright Lecturer in American literature in Germany. Crazy Horse in Stillnesswon the Small Press Book Award, Shoah Trainwas a National Book Award finalist, and A Poetics of Hiroshimawas a selection of the Chautauqua Literary and Scientific Circle.
