A good companion to Steven Leech's The Wedgehorn Manifesto, A City of Ghosts fills in some details of both an actual and speculative nature. Using both fact and fiction, the author delves a little deeper and coaxes those ghosts to reveal their selves. Along with Delaware author Henry Seidel Canby, he explores the Brandywine River's influence on us. We feel the spirit of Wilmington's jazz legends rising up after an emissary from the beginning of The Jazz Age visits, teaches and mentors young local musicians. Ghosts begin to emerge from Wilmington's east side, among artists and musicians alike. Herein is the author's brief encounter with Ayn Rand, his degree of separation from the lost generation of the 1920s and Depression era 1930s, from the local literary generation before him, and among artists hidden by circumstance. Herein is our history of the local counter culture from the Sixties. Herein is the history of local public poetry readings, along with those who we should never forget. Now we can give them names, making a record of them in A City of Ghosts.
