Harriet Tarlo

Broschiertes Buch

Poems 1990-2003

Beschreibung

This is the first large collection of poems by Harriet Tarlo, and showcases all of her shorter poems from the 1990-2003 period. Her work is best described as "radical pastoral", and readers with an interest in English landscape will find Ms Tarlo's unusual approach a breath of fresh air in what has become a moribund area of contemporary poetry.

Autor

Harriet Tarlo was born in Worcester in 1968. She studied at the University of Durham for several years, receiving her BA in 1989 and her PhD (on the American poet, H.D.) in 1995. Her academic writing focuses on modernist and contemporary poetry with particular interest in linguistic experimentation, gender and landscape/environment. She now teaches English and Creative Writing at Sheffield Hallam University. She lives with her partner and two children near Holmfirth, having lived in West Yorkshire since the mid-nineties. She spent most of the previous decade in County Durham, and is also a frequent visitor to the North Cornish coast. Her poetry engages as closely as it can with these places, not in an attempt to represent them, but to embody the sound and rhythm of human relationships with the outside.
