Aram Saroyan is an American poet, novelist, biographer, memoirist and playwright, who is especially known for his minimalist poetry, famous examples of which include the one-word poem "lighght" and a one-letter poem comprising a four-legged version of the letter "m".
“What Malcolm Cowley did for the expatriates in the twenties, Aram Saroyan does now for the sixties. Saroyan reminds us: ‘the sixties were about happiness,’ and reprises that gentle emotion for us exquisitely.”
—Caroyln See
“Intimate, poignant, entertaining.”
—Anne Waldman
