Über die Autorin bzw. den Autor

Edwin Brock's death in 1997, just before his 70th birthday, brought to an end a body of poems which had first been noticed in the late 1950s, in the USA as well as in Britain. Sharp, colloquial, shrewd, direct and often humorous, Brock's poems are highly original. Two of them, "Five Ways to Kill a Man" and "Song of the Battery Hen," are among the best-known poems of the twentieth century. In his last years Brock was extraordinarily prolific.
