Originally from Manchester, England, John Ash currently lives in a small village outside Istanbul. In addition to being one of England's better-known poets, he is the author of one of the great travel books of our time, A Byzantine Journey (1995). In THE ANATOLIKON, Ash's deep knowledge of Byzantine and Ottoman cultures, as well as his daily life, informs poems that somehow still reflect his awareness of Western poetics and experimentation. Ash's poetry has appeared in the New Yorker, the New York Times, and the Paris Review. About the Author John Ash (born June 29, 1948) is an expatriate British poet and writer. His lifelong interest in Byzantium (especially its architecture) is a major theme which runs through his poetry, fiction and travel writing, along with family friends and the three major cities he has lived in. As well as his books (largely published by Carcanet), his work has appeared in The New Yorker, The New York Times, The Village Voice, The Washington Post and Paris Review.
