From the East

John Greening is the author of over twenty collections of poetry, most recently The Interpretation of Owls: Selected Poems 1977–2022. His essays on poetry are collected in Vapour Trails and A High Calling. He has taught in Upper Egypt, Scotland and New Jersey, and has lived for many years with his family in Cambridgeshire.

'A poet whose unbounded curiosity has taken him through the wide (and often conflicted) world with a passion for details that root his work in place.'
