Grahame Davies is a Welsh poet, author and lyricist, who has won numerous prizes, including the Wales Book of the Year Award. He is the author of many books in Welsh and English, including: ‘The Chosen People’, a study of the relationship of the Welsh and Jewish peoples; ‘The Dragon and the Crescent’, a study of Wales and Islam; a novel, ‘Everything Must Change’, about the French philosopher Simone Weil, and the popular works of psychogeography, ‘Real Wrexham’ and ‘Real Cambridge’.

One of the most independent, and as such, most interesting voices of contemporary Welsh-language poetry." 
Gerwyn Wiliams "Check here for the meeting of form with freedom, for tradition and for avant garde and for examples of the kind of splendid literary shenanigans that only real poets can succeed at in a verse which melds two cultures into an exciting whole." - Peter Finch "Because Grahame Davies forever makes the perfect imperfect sense, the smallest things exploding into God or Language or the Sea Itself. That's the surprise of the poem, the ease of a great writer: that you don't notice the lightning as it emerges from the depths, but what it illuminates. No need to answer. Read the poems. Grahame Davies is a known treasure in Welsh, and now we English-speakers get to share the wealth." - Bob Holman
