Michael J Leach on Chronicity

from Compulsive Reader talks Hosted by Magdalena Ball

Australian academic, writer, and poet, Michael J. Leach reads from and talks about his latest poetry book Chronicity. We talk about such things as the relationship between the visual/concrete poems on the page and their sonic qualities in live readings, the sensual, visceral nature of the work, how he chooses and works with constraints, his use of humour and the way he plays scientific precision against emotion, the way poetry enables him, as a scientist, to work better with the complexities of the real world, and lots more. You can find out more about Michael and Chronicity at his website: https://mleach11.wixsite.com/writing/chronicity Chronicity was published by Melbourne Poets Union (ISBN: 9780648967910) and a copy can be purchased by emailing Hamish Danks Brown [email protected] cc: [email protected]
