He is prepared to take risks. He challenges with rich and unusual language, and he takes poetry for children into a territory of strong emotions, often hauntingly expressed. There is no one else writing quite as he does.--Helen Dunmore Poetry Review Author InformationPhilip Gross is a writer of many parts — from prize-winning poetry to teenage novels of high suspense and unsettling depths. Son of a wartime refugee from Estonia and a Cornish schoolmaster’s daughter, his work explores borderlines - between childhood and adult life, between fantasy and reality. He has two grown-up children and a grandson, and lives in Penarth with his wife Zélie. He has led writing workshops in schools for twenty years, and is Professor of Creative Writing at Glamorgan University. Tab Content 6Author Website:Countries AvailableAll regions |
