Books by John A. Hall
John Hall was born in 1945 in the country since named Zambia and has lived in England from 1958, mostly in Devon. He has worked for many years at Dartington College of Arts, where he was one of the founders of 'performance writing' and where he is now part-time.His first collection of poems, Between the Cities, was published in 1968 by Grosseteste Press. He was included in the anthology A Various Art. His last book publication of poems was Else Here: Selected Poems (etruscan books,1999). This included a section of previously unpublished work. His most recent publication - though by no means his most recent writing - is a 'brief textual adventure' called Apricot Pages, from Reality Street (2005).Since the early 1990s he has worked as a poet across the different formal and cultural environments of page and frame. In this same period he has become increasingly absorbed in enquiries about these environments and their relation to both writing and reading. A number of these enquiries have appeared as published articles.
