David Greenslade

David Greenslade is considered to be one of the foremost voices writing in Wales today. As a Welsh learner he has - in Burning Down the Dosbarth - written about language reclamation. His poetry collections - most notably Fishbone and Creosote - combine a profoundly Welsh sensibility with some of the most modern writing in Wales today. He has written novels, poetry and Welsh language books for children and, as well as contributing to a wide variety of journals and magazines, writes a monthly column for the Welsh American newspaper Ninnau. Having travelled extensively in Japan and the USA he now lives in Cardiff.
