- Summary:
- Tom Wayman's poems in Helpless Angels remind us that those of us from the generations who have been able to listen, anyplace and anytime, to our own choice of music are the first human beings who have been continually surrounded by music made by others. That experience, he argues, has shaped us in profound ways. Book jacket.
