Collected Sonnets by Gavin Selerie
Collected Sonnets gathers nine main sequences from a 50-year span. It includes takes on poems from other languages and a large number of previously unpublished texts. Praised by Peter Porter for richly re-working Elizabethan elements, Selerie's sonnets have appealed equally to readers with a modernist bent.
Gavin Selerie was born in London, where he still lives. His books include Azimuth (1984), Roxy (1996), Le Fanu's Ghost (2006) and Hariot Double (2016)-all long sequences with linked units. These texts often have a visual dimension and Selerie has collaborated extensively with artist-poet Alan Halsey; he has also worked with musicians in performance. Music's Duel: New and Selected Poems 1972-2008 was published by Shearsman in 2009. Critical work includes studies of Charles Olson and Edward Dorn. Selerie's memoir of the London poetry scene 1970-1989 appeared in Clasp, ed. Robert Hampson & Ken Edwards (2016).
