Synopsis

"Few men know death: we do not usually undergo it deliberately, but unthinkingly and out of habit and most men die because men cannot help dying" --François de La Rochefoucauld

"And we open our eyes and feel our way in the dark." --William Bronk

"The changes that have occurred in places you return to, the demise of attitudes that once seemed 'inevitable', show not so much how things change with time, but how transitory they always were. The fundamental truth is not that things change, but that they have hardly ever existed."

"All my friends, dead for so many years - even their ghosts are dying."

"The moon at last quarter sliding out of black cloud, giving body to darkness."

--Clive Faust

À propos de l?auteur

Born in Melbourne before World War 2 and lived in Japan for some years. Featured in Origin magazine, USA in 1978 and has published five volumes of verse since. Worked as a pay clerk but settled down, back from Japan, age forty, as a sub-academic in Bendigo not teaching literature, in an institution much like the one Zukofsky taught at. Retired and vegetating like a noxious weed, though no longer casting seed. His Past Futures - Collected Poems, was published by Shearsman Books in 2017.
