Sooner or Later Frank Zusammenfassung

Sooner or Later Frank Jeremy Reed

Sooner or Later Frank finds Jeremy Reed optimising his London quarter of Soho and the West End, its outlaws, opportune strangers and rogue mavericks condensed into poems coloured by an imagery that pushes pioneering edges towards final frontiers. Right on the big city moment, and with an eye for arresting acute visual detail, Reed makes the capital into personal affairs. His characteristic love of glamour, rock music, seasonal step-changes, and a Ballardian preoccupation with the visionary render this new PBS Recommendation, in John Ashbery's words on Reed's recent work, 'a dazzling tour de force.'

Sooner or Later Frank Bewertungen

'For JG Ballard, Jeremy Reed was the only contemporary writer worth reading, and now more than ever, his writing (like Ballard's) interrogates the present moment, its sensations, obsessions and experiences, in uniquely subversive and astonishing ways that instantly annul mainstream writing and show that only the extremes and peripheries of imagination and action are the sites of visual creative work. Sooner or Later Frank is a fabulous, profound exploration.' STEPHEN BARBER

Über Jeremy Reed

Called by the Independent 'British poetry's glam, spangly, shape-shifting answer to David Bowie', Jeremy Reed's poetry, fiction and performances are inimitable and utterly opposed to grey mainstream poetry. He has published over 40 books of poetry, fiction and non-fiction. His own work has been translated abroad in numerous editions and more than a dozen languages. He has received awards from the National Poetry, Somerset Maugham, Eric Gregory, Ingram Merrill, and Royal Literary Funds. He has also won the Poetry Society's European Translation Prize. He is widely acknowledged as the most imaginatively gifted British poet of his generation, praised by Seamus Heaney for his 'rich and careful writing' and by David Lodge for his 'remarkable lyric gift'. Bjork simply called his work 'the most beautiful, outrageously brilliant poetry in the world'. His Selected Poems were published by Penguin in 1987. Subsequent collections have been Nineties (Cape, 1990), Dicing for Pearls (1990), Pop Stars (1994), Sweet Sister Lyric (1996), Saint Billie (2001), Duck and Sally Inside (2004), This is How You Disappear (2007), and his collaboration with Marc Almond Piccadilly Bongo (2011), all from Enitharmon Press.
