Terrestrial Music by Bradley

The poetry in Terrestrial Music has been inspired by Pablo Neruda, Thomas McGrath, Muriel Rukeyser, and MartAn Espada. In lyrics that explore issues that affect our daily lives, such as ecology, genocide, hunger, nuclear damage, and violence, John Bradley not only celebrates the beauty of earth and the redeeming power of nature, but also confronts social injustice and fully explores the impact of the industrial uses of radium with detailed historical anecdotes and documentation. These poems identify one common source of strength: The earth is part of our identity, our body, and our soul.

LOVE-IN-IDLENESS: THE POETRY OF ROBERTO ZINGARELLO (The Word Works, 2015), Terrestrial Music, War on Words, YOU DON'T KNOW WHAT YOU DON'T KNOW (Cleveland State University Poetry Center, 2010), and Trancelumination are among John Bradley's five works. Atomic Ghost: Writers React to the Nuclear Era, Learning to Glow: A Nuclear Reader, and EATING PURE LIGHT: HOMAGE TO THOMAS MCGRATH (The Backwaters Press, 2009) are three anthologies he edited. He teaches at Northern Illinois University and has received two NEA scholarships and a Pushcart Award.
