A great and necessary reminder, lest we lose the (far-fallen) angel in the reification (a word he liked) of his earthly oeuvre. The late Ted Berrigan (1934-1983) was a "people and place" poet to a fault, so it's only fitting that friend and fellow-poet Anne Waldman has compiled, edited, and introduced this star-studded tribute/celebration in the form of reminiscences, interviews, poems, letters, critiques, comics, photographs, and collaborations which portray not only the poet but the legendary Lower East Side (NYC) poetry community he called home.
