Peter Reading
Peter Reading (27 July 1946 – 17 November 2011) was an English poet and the author of 26 collections of poetry. He is known for his choice of ugly subject matter, and use of classical metres.〔Keith Tuma, ''Anthology of Twentieth-Century British and Irish Poetry'' (2001), p. 725.〕 ''The Oxford Companion to Twentieth-Century Poetry'' describes his verse as "strongly anti-romantic, disenchanted and usually satirical".〔Martin Seymour-Smith "Reading, Peter" in Ian Hamilton (ed.) ''The Oxford Companion to Twentieth-Century Poetry'', Oxford: Oxford University Press, 1994, p.443〕 Interviewed by Robert Potts, he described his work as a combination of "painstaking care" and "misanthropy".〔Robert Potts [http://www.oxfordpoetry.co.uk/texts.php?int=v3_peterreading "An Interview with Peter Reading", ''Oxford Poetry'', OP V.3 [Winter 1990]〕
