About the Author
Chris Emery is the author of five poetry collections, including Modern Fog and, most recently, Wonder. He is the Director of Salt and a leading figure in independent publishing. His poetry is celebrated for its musicality and forensic eye, often dwelling on the sacred landscapes and history of North Norfolk. Widely anthologised, his work explores the beauty of the mundane and the dreamscape. He lives and works in Cromer.
Charles Bernstein was born in Manhattan in 1950. He has published 27 collections of poetry including With Strings, Republics of Reality: Poems 1975-1984 and Controlling Interests. His essays are included in My Way: Speeches and Poems and Content’s Dream: Essays 1975-1984. Bernstein is a professor at the University of Pennsylvania.
Peter Middleton was born in 1950 and grew up in both England and the United States. After a first degree at Oxford University, he took a PhD at Sheffield University, and studied for a year at SUNY Buffalo with Robert Creeley and Jack Clarke. He is the author of a book on masculinity, The Inward Gaze (1992), co-author with Tim Woods of Literatures of Memory (2000), and author of a book of essays on poetics, Distant Reading: Performance, Readership and Consumption in Contemporary Poetry (2005). His poetry and essays have appeared in magazines in the UK and US, and with Piers Hugill he is editor of Torque Press. He is a Professor of English at the University of Southampton.

She is the editor of out of everywhere: an anthology of contemporary linguistically innovative poetry by women in North America and the UK (1996).
