MICHAEL BLACKBURN, poet, lecturer in English Literature and Creative Writing at the University of Lincoln (UK). "These poems demonstrate the true quality of Michael Blackburn's writing: forever experimental, he explores history and identity from personal and public perspectives with a deft craft. His poems have always been engaging, vital, clear and precise." - Brendan Cleary "his is the compassionate voice in a dispassionate universe...Blackburn displays a controlled and powerful imagination." - Eva Salzman "Blackburn's talent is versatile, charging his work with a wide variety of voices and perspectives...I can't imagine another writer doing this as well as Blackburn does it." - Tim Cumming Latest publication: Spyglass Over the Lagoon (The Knives Forks And Spoons Press, 2011).
