Bøger af Roy Robbins

Roy Robbins is an award-winning playwright with four plays and, more recently, a book of poems to his credit. North is his debut novel. Robbins studied poetry with James Dickey at the University of South Carolina, theater in New York, and literature at the University of Virginia. His most recent work, a book of poetry entitled Poster Art Nights, was published in 2015. Robbins lives in rural Virginia with his wife, the author Susan Pepper Robbins, who writes novels about the South and teaches writing at Hampden-Sydney College.

POSTER ART NIGHTS explores interior and exterior spaces ranging from the broken hopes of men and women in love, to a field in Virginia where a kite is flying or the stars are looking down, to a home where dogs lie sleeping, to a city high rise where office meetings go forward, to a Florida lake where a speedboat kills or a village in Bolivia where the yard is being swept, to a small town where cars are sold. There are lyrics, satires, narratives and haiku. The poems reflect an observer on whom "nothing is wasted."
