The Life and Poetry of Hyman Edelstein

http://www.uwo.ca/english/canadianpoetry/cpjrn/vol06/fisher.htm

“The names Klein, Layton, Cohen are by-words in the field of Canadian letters, but until a colleague mentioned Hyman Edelstein to me, I had never heard of the man or of his work. When I read his poetry I was more than a little surprised to find that his social protest poems published in 1927 and 1931 look forward to Klein’s ‘Radical’ poems, and Edelstein’s in vocation of Jesus as a ‘brother’ anticipates Irving Layton’s ‘For my Brother Jesus.’ Thus intrigued, I went on to investigate further Edelstein’s life and work.”
