Reseña del libro "Hotel Universo"
Looking at relations to place, ways we receive language, and anxieties of communication as we move in the world, Chris Brown's poems particularize the rendered, the middling, the ostensibly universal. Written on Awakabal land in and around Newcastle's suburbs and beaches, and published here, his poems engage a politics of location. Despite its interest in the transitory, hotel universo, and poetry more widely, is a place to have come to, 'and never left'.Chris Brown is a poet, teacher and student living in Newcastle. His poems have appeared in a number of magazines and journals. He edits the poetry chapbook series Slow Loris. In 2019, he was the inaugural winner of the Karen Thrift Poetry Prize.
