by Diane Kistner (Editor), David Chorlton (Author)
Eric Greinke (in Presa) has written that "Chorlton more than meets my criteria for inclusion in the canon of the best poets of the Boom Generation." With more than 90 diverse selections spanning the work of 30 years and 29 books and chapbooks, DAVID CHORLTON: SELECTED POEMS is a great introduction to Chorlton's poetry as its themes have ranged from his European background to the desert Southwest. For those already familiar with his work, these selections include many poems you may not have seen or heard. A definite must-have book.
Author Biography
David Chorlton was born in Austria and grew up in Manchester, England. In 1971 he moved from the rainy industrial city to the cultural city of Vienna and stayed seven years before moving to Phoenix (his wife's home), where he began to invest more time in his writing. Arizona's landscape and wildlife gradually infiltrated his work, where he can show his affection for them even while acknowledging that he remains, quite contentedly, unassimilated. That is a circumstance to which he owes much of his poetry.
