After the success of Grain (shortlisted for the Griffin Poetry
Prize, poetry's most prestigious international award) John Glenday
returns with The Golden Mean. Glenday's poetry - once something of
a closely guarded secret - now has many devotees, and this new book
shows why: Glenday's mastery of the short translucent lyric and his
unashamed and direct concern with matters of the spirit, of love,
of human nature and natural law - means he can often read as a
Spanish or East European poet in immaculate translation. But for
all its apparently weightless and aerodynamic grace, Glenday's
poetry can be playful, experimental and occasionally even surreal,
and his voice local and intimate. The Golden Mean shows Glenday's
full range, and a poet at the height of his imaginative powers.
