Ken Bolton

Thoughtful-and yet forgetful, easily distracted, hardly there sometimes -- Ken Bolton's is a lyrical figure limned against the harsh outlines, the stark colours, of the Adelaide art world, adding a word here, a thought there, in the general flux of words and deeds around town. In 2012 Shearsman published his Selected Poems, 1975-2010. Recent Australian publications include Sly Mongoose, A Whistled Bit of Bop, Lonnie's Lament and Starting at Basheer's.
