63 poems spanning 63 years, The Night of Swaying Grass: A Memoir in Poems is the debut poetry collection of R. Diskin Black, and tells the story of his life beginning in 1963. It is a story of childhood loss and grief, a story of coming of age and coming out, a story of resilience and reinvention. And ultimately, it is a story of New York City, one of eight million tales told in that city every year.

Born and raised in northern New Jersey, R. Diskin Black graduated with a BA in History from Lafayette College in Easton, Pa. He also went to law school, but nobody wants to hear about that. He is the author of two novels, Zombie Scout: The Diary of Jack Sullivan and Ethan Weiss and the City Between Two Rivers. He lives in the West Village of New York City with his cat, Sebastian.
