Recognizing his international influence as both a visual and sound poet, Nichols literary achievements are reviewed, including The Martyrology - a renowned, seven-volume poem - four novels, two musical comedies, six childrens books, hundreds of hand-drawn visual poems, and even 10 episodes of Jim Hensons hit television series Fraggle Rock.
