Call Centre Love Song by Ian Gregson
In his long-awaited first collection, Ian Gregson probes life as we know it, faulty, finicky, sensual and at times beautifully redemptive. Packed with wit and wisdom, Gregsons poetry has long been admired as it spanned the pages of many major journals; here, at last, he delivers the goods in a superb and impressive debut.
Ian Gregson’s latest book of poems is How We Met (Salt, 2008). Call Centre Love Song, a selection of his poems, was shortlisted for the prestigious Forward Prize. He has published poems and reviews in the London Review of Books, the TLS and Poetry Review, amongst others. His critical books are Contemporary Poetry and Postmodernism, The Male Image: Representations of Masculinity iin Postwar Poetry (both published by Macmillan), Postmodern Literature, Hodder Arnold, 2004) and The New Poetry In Wales (University of Wales Press, 2007). Since 1977 he has taught in the English department at the university in Bangor and is now a Professor there.
