More About the Author
Product Description
Product Description
Tom Raworth's Collected Poems (2003) was acclaimed by the Times Literary Supplement as a milestone: thirty years' work by a major poet of English modernism gathered for the first time. Raworth moves on, radical, inventive and politically engaged. Windmills on Fire takes a vertiginous ride through the language landscape we inhabit. Poems fragment and distort, veer in unexpected directions, reconfigure. Playful, often funny, Windmills on Fire is fuelled by anger at the use of language as an instrument of political deceit and military aggression.
About the Author
Tom Raworth was born in London in 1938. During the 1970s he travelled and worked in the United States and Mexico, returning to England in 1977 to be Resident Poet at King's College, Cambridge, in which city he still lives. Since 1966 he has published more than forty books and pamphlets of poetry, prose and translations. His graphic work has been shown in France, Italy, and the United States, and he has collaborated and performed with musicians, painters and other poets. In 1991 he was invited to teach at the University of Cape Town, the first European writer thus distinguished for thirty years.
