I'll Be Home

The winner of more awards than any editorial writer in the Albany Times Union's history, Jim McGrath was both an Albany institution and a keen observer of the world beyond his beloved adopted city. When he died in 2013 at the age of fifty-six, the newspaper lost a writer who combined a passionate advocacy for society's most vulnerable people with a scathing disregard for the elite whose actions created an underclass in the United States. His writing was often elegiac, but his take on his adopted home state of New York and his beloved Albany was variously bemused, witty, irreverent, and indignant. He could relate to the plight of the minimum-wage worker as easily as he could talk to a US sena...

The Age of Auden

How W. H. Auden’s emigration to the United States changed the course of postwar American poetry W. H. Auden's emigration from England to the United States in 1939 marked more than a turning point in his own life and work—it changed the course of American poetry itself. The Age of Auden takes, for the first time, the full measure of Auden's influence on American poetry. Combining a broad survey of Auden's midcentury U.S. cultural presence with an account of his dramatic impact on a wide range of younger American poets—from Allen Ginsberg to Sylvia Plath—the book offers a new history of postwar American poetry. For Auden, facing private crisis and global catastrophe, moving to the Unit...

This is the story of one boy, one family, one community after World War II. The rural landscape changed rapidly in the early mid-1950’s. Farming basically was transformed from the horse to the modern farm. Asa Johnson lived in this time and this place. He saw the Garden of Eden he lived in changed by outside serpents. He saw the safe order challenged. He witnessed the rules of the game of life being changed, and the values instilled in his Christian upbringing questioned. With every change, every challenge, he questioned his life more. And he endures, grows stronger as the paths of life and death mold him, his family, his community, and his country. It was the time of change. It was the time of “Innocence Lost!”
