C K Stead

C K Stead’s most recent novel, RISK, was published in London by MacLehose Press in October 2012, and a new collection of poems, The Yellow Buoy, was published by Auckland University Press in February 2013, followed later in the year by a UK edition from Arc. He will appear at the King’s Lynn festival in late September 2013.

Stead comments: ‘I did these translations while holding a Bogliasco Fellowship in Literature at the Liguria Study Centre just outside Genoa. I was helped with the Italian by my old friend and colleague Massimo Bacigalipo, Professor of English at Genoa and an expert on Ezra Pound.’
