The last recent poem intended to be published in Hart Crane's life, "The Broken Tower" (1932) has been widely recognized as one of the best lyrics of Crane's last years, if not his career. In line with the diversity and difficulty of Crane's criticism, the poem has been widely interpreted - such as death, life, process poetry, visionary poetry, poetry of failed visions - but its biographical impulse from Crane's first heterosexual relationship (with Peggy Cowley, alienate wife Malcolm Cowley ) are generally undisputed. Written early in the year, the poem was rejected by Poetry , and only appeared in print (on The New Republic ) after the famous suicide by Crane water (compare his great homosexual love) cycle "Voyages").
