  • Broschiertes Buch

In Lonnie's Lament Ken Bolton considers life in 'difficult times' and attempts to register change in the feel of eras as we pass from one to another - a 'history of the vanishing present'. An inquiring focus ranges across heroes, friends, footballers, old cartoons, and people observed in the street, in conversation and in art. Bolton explores how we define ourselves against others, and how our views of them define us. These poems are philosophical, but always amusing, and range from dreamily associative, to snapshot and argument, to travel sketches and the comical.

Autorenporträt
Thoughtful-and yet forgetful, easily distracted, hardly there sometimes-Ken Bolton's is a lyrical figure limned against the harsh outlines, the stark colours, of the Adelaide art world, adding a word here, a thought there, in the general flux of words and deeds around town. In 2012 Shearsman published his Selected Poems, 1975-2010. Recent Australian publications include Sly Mongoose, A Whistled Bit of Bop, Lonnie's Lament and Starting at Basheer's.
