Bøger af Rupert M. Loydell

A collection that shows the author continuing his forays into collage and experimental writing, but always with a lyric turn.

In Dear Mary Rupert Loydell writes about art and life and how they intersect. Fascinated by both renaissance and contemporary painting, he re-invents moments of annunciation in today's world, and revels in the colours and sunshine of Italy. This is a world where aliens abduct the Virgin Mary, and rock singers find themselves singing about her...

The Man Who Has Everything is an unlikely anti-hero, adrift in a world of instant gratification, momentary experiences and instant answers, in contrast to the music, art, books and conversation he prefers.

In these mercurial poems, real and imaginary events combine with overheard, quoted and misquoted voices to produce a slippery and unreliable series of opinionated poems. What appear at first to be heartfelt confessions reveal themselves as exercises in ventriloquism, argumentative fictions that seek to subvert and surprise the reader.

A compendium of the author's many-faceted experimental writing.

Rupert Loydell's new book, 'A Conference of Voices' includes two full collections: one, the title collection, which concentrates on his more lyrical voice, and the second, 'Multiple Exposure', which is devoted to a more experimental turn of work.
