I have a name: summary, description and annotation

We offer to read an annotation, description, summary or preface (depends on what the author of the book "I have a name" wrote himself). If you haven't found the necessary information about the book — write in the comments, we will try to find it.

The wondrous subtlety of David Ignatows art is brought to bear on the timeless themes of love and death. Intimate remembrances evince a rich life: Hebrew lessons, war, first love, friendships with Stanley Kunitz and others, his wifes death. One poem comments on another, often with wit and irony; no statement is ever final. In this way, Ignatow shows that we exist most fully in the fluidity of our perceptions and in our inability to attain a single state of mind or definition of things. I Have A Name is a vital engagement with life and an unflinching stare at death, concluding that love transcendent is a reality, embracing all, the living and the dead.
