Charles Boyle (born in Leeds in 1951) is a British poet. He has also published a novella, ''24 for 3'', under the pseudonym "Jennie Walker."〔. Boyle wrote a short piece about misidentifications of authors (''TLS'', September 28, 2012, 16) in which he good-naturedly referred to vandalism of this Wikipedia biography.〕 Boyle read English at Cambridge, taught in a Sheffield comprehensive and in Egypt〔Cover copy of Charles Boyle, ''Affinities'' (Manchester: Carcanet 1977)〕 and worked in publishing, including several years at Faber and Faber. In 1980 he married painter Madeleine Strindberg. He is best known for writing ''The Age of Cardboard and String''. This book of poems had favourable reviews from ''The Guardian'' and Magma Poetry. In 2007, as a result of his difficulty in getting ''24 for 3'' published, he established (CB editions ), a small press dedicated to novellas, translations, and writing in other genres often neglected by mainstream publishers. ==Awards== *1981 Cholmondeley Award *1996 Forward Prize shortlist for ''Paleface'' *2001 T.
