Weldon Kees And The Arts At Midcentury

Born in 1914 in Beatrice, Nebraska, and presumed dead in 1955 (when he apparently leapt from the Golden Gate Bridge), Weldon Kees has become one of the better-known 'unknown' American poets of the twentieth century, his fiction and poetry largely kept alive by other poets. This book shows the range and reach of Kees' artistic activities.
