  1. John Unterecker's biography of #HartCrane, Voyager, captures the essence of a poet whose life was defined by relentless movement & sense of displacement; viz., driven by a desire to escape the turmoil of his Ohio upbringing. Akin to #Rimbaud -- his French counterpart & usually point of comparison -- emerges as a quintessentially nomadic figure. His nomadism ended in the 30s when he leapt into the Gulf -- a tragic and defining moment that mythologized his existence for over 70 years.
