Do you know Hugh Lupton's work? For me he is the greatest UK storyteller currently telling. His recent book The Dreaming of Place is the best meditation on storytelling I've ever read: an extraordinary account 'of why our species remains so deeply connected both to the stories we tell and the land we inhabit: of the relationship between landscape and the way we communicate...'
:) It’s helping me understand my feelings about poetry. Sometimes I write poetry that’s kind of complex and yields things more slowly. I feel pressure to bring all the meaning to the front and have it be really sensory which is a style of poetry I also like. But what comes out is often more coded and riddley, this helps me understand a bit more what might be going on
Hi Tad
