Biography

Andy Brown is Director of the Centre for Creative Writing at the University of Exeter. Originally he studied ecology, but is now a poet, a literary academic, and a contributing editor to The Kenyon Review. Previously, he was a Centre Director for the Arvon Foundation’s creative writing courses at Totleigh Barton. His most recent books are Fall of the Rebel Angels: poems 1996-2006and a forthcoming book of poems, Goose Music, written in collaboration with poet and author, John Burnside (both Salt Publications).

Prose poetry has figured in each of his collections, and he has a single volume entirely dedicated to the genre, Hunting the Kinnayas(Stride, 2004). In his prose poetry, Brown ranges through several of the ‘styles’ associated with the form: from an oriental-inspired minimalism, to a more recognizably European tradition. John Burnside has observed, “his work demonstrates that there need be no barriers in poetry; that the philosophical, the lyrical and the playful can be combined in work of assured and generous vision.”
