An episode from 5/3/21: Tonight, I read a letter Hart Crane sent to his father in January of 1924. Outside of van Gogh\'s letters, I don\'t know of a better attempt by an artist to explain his vocation to someone who will never understand it.\\xa0You can find the letter in O My Land, My Friends: The Selected Letters of Hart Crane.
