Delmore Schwartz, a celebrated poet and storyteller, is recognized for his unique ability to portray characters with childlike authenticity. This collection features his most beloved works, including "In Dreams Begin Responsibilities" and "The Heavy Bear who Goes with Me," alongside a newly discovered story, "The Heights of Joy." With an introduction by Cynthia Ozick, the book reflects on Schwartz's profound impact on 20th-century literature, his struggles with mental illness, and the enduring quality of his work, which combines comedy with a search for nobility and spirituality.
