Talk About Poetry by Peter Robinson
Talks about poetry and sexual violence, the balkanization of the art and ways to resist it, and techniques of poetry and how they engage with the circumstances of life. This book, made up of twelve interviews, also talks of the connections between the author's own poetry, literary criticism, translations, aphoristic writings, and ancillary work.
Peter Robinson was born in Salford, Lancashire, in 1953 and grew up mainly in Liverpool. He has degrees from the universities of York and Cambridge, and since 1989 has been a professor of English literature in Japan, at present in Kyoto where he lives with his wife and two daughters. He was described as 'the finest poet of his generation' as early as 1983, and has since established an international reputation in many of the fields associated with modern and contemporary poetry.
