John Stammers

Panoramic Lounge Bar (eBook, ePUB)

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

John Stammers's collection is witty, touching and clever - with brilliant images where love scenes are laced with irony and the details of contemporary life. He writes about irrelevant vampires living out their days on the sea front at Eastbourne; about flowers with 'fine pointed petals like scalpels' and is absolutely brilliant on music. His writing is vivid and assured.

Autorenporträt

John Stammers was born in Islington and now lives in Oxfordshire. He is the author of four poetry collections, including Queries on Death, the Infinite and Irrational Numbers. As a teacher he has been associated with two Cambridge colleges as well as King's College London, of which he was appointed an Associate after reading philosophy there as an undergraduate. He was one of several poets who emerged through the tutelary example of the late Michael Donaghy, publishing his debut Panoramic Lounge-bar in 2001, which went on to win the Forward Prize for Best First Collection. Stolen Love Behaviour followed, shortlisted for the T.S. Eliot Prize, and Interior Night too. John has edited The Picador Book of Love Poems and a selection of the poetry of Gerard Manley Hopkins in Faber's Poet to Poet series.
