The Hobo Poets series aims to introduce you to some names that you perhaps don't know and to some poetry that you really should be aware of. Six quite different poets showcase their abilities in this series of first collections that has been specifically designed to promote their talents. We at bluechrome truly believe that this is only a first step for each of the poets, and that they are names that you will see much more of in years to come. Since leaving Art College, Oz's career (in the sense of something sliding out of control) has followed no logical trajectory, but it nonetheless makes some sort of sense. As a writer, he has published poetry, fiction, art history, literary history, reviews and stuff that falls through the gaps between. As a photographer, his work has appeared in magazines, books, journals, newspapers, galleries and on record/CD covers.
