Here is honesty, genuineness of mind and of poetic delivery. Several of these poems are little masterpieces. -LOUIS DUDEK Konyves relays an authentic voice in well-carpentered passages... short, from the heart epiphanies one finds marked with peculiarly urban tenderness; back alley kind of poems that cue on the localized imagery of a Montreal lane, a cemetery, a lover's bed. Konyves has a precise eye for detail and he strives for meaning in his observations.

This homage did little to impress Kneale, who wrote in The Observer, "For the record I have had nothing to do with the film and I have not seen it. It sounds pretty bad. With an homage like this, one might say, who needs insults?

Updike stayed at The New Yorker as a full staff writer for only two years, writing "Talk of the Town" columns and submitting poetry and short stories to the magazine. In New York, Updike wrote the poems and stories that came to fill his early books like The Carpentered Hen (1958) and The Same Door (1959). These works were influenced by Updike's early engagement with The New Yorker. This early work also featured the influence of J. D. Salinger ("A&P;"); John Cheever ("Snowing in Greenwich Village"); and the Modernists Marcel Proust, Henry Green, James Joyce, and Vladimir Nabokov.

"Greenwich Village - The Story Of Richmond Hill" The estate served for a time following April 13, 1776, as the headquarters of George Washington, until the retreat of the Continental army from New York after the battle of Long Island, August 27. After it had been occupied by British officers, 1776–83, it served the first British ambassador to the United States, Sir John Temple; it stood empty for a time before becoming the official residence of Vice President John Adams during the first presidency.

In 2002, Hancock wrote The Incubus Archives, presented by the Rude Mechanicals and Hyde Park Theatre in 2002. Reviewing The Incubus Archives, the Austin Chronicle praised Hancock’s construction of, “…a dreamscape -- in which subjects seem to bubble from the darkness of the subconscious…” In 2011, Clubbed Thumb presented his play Our Lot, written in collaboration with Kristin Newbom, as part of their annual Summerworks festival. Hancock’s play Master was produced by the Foundry Theatre in 2017. The play imagined a retrospective and wake for a fictional Afrofuturist artist named James Leroy “Uncle Jimmy” Clemens, and featured artwork created by Wardell Milan. The New York Times hailed the production as, “disturbing and powerful… the drama is something that seems to be leaking from the very forms so elaborately carpentered to contain it,” and named it a Critic’s Pick.
