Notă biografică
Paul Henry was born in Aberystwyth and came to poetry through songwriting. Described by the late U.A. Fanthorpe as a poet's poetA" who combines a sense of the music of words with an endlessly inventive imaginationA", his work has been widely anthologised and regularly appears in journals as diverse as Poetry Wales and The TLS. A popular creative writing tutor, he ran the Ledbury Festival's Poetry Cafe at Hereford's Courtyard theatre and is a regular tutor at Ty Newydd, Wales's national writers' centre. Mari d'Ingrid, a translation of his fifth and most recent collection, Ingrid's Husband, (Seren), recently appeared from L'Harmattan. He also works as an associate lecturer at the University of Glamorgan and as a radio presenter. He lives in Crickhowell, Powys.
Recenzii
His poems possess the unpretentious clarity and directness Kenneth Allott found in the 1930's English poet Bernard Spencer (the epigraph to Henry's book is from Spencer's poem, 'On the Road'), intelligently reflecting on his perceptions and apprehensions. Henry is a very fine poet.A" - W.S. Milne in Agenda Paul Henry is the poet I wish I could be. If I ever meet a genie and get three wishes, I'm asking for his musicality, his use of back-story and his ability to create the most haunting resonance.A" - Sheenagh Pugh
