| Peter Turton - Bacchanalian Poet |
Today's poet hides an ample light under his bushel. This imperial measurement of dry goods is totally inappropriate for the man concerned, he was in truth a prolific imbiber of intoxicating liquids when I first got to know him. Peter Turton has always been a flamboyant wordsmith and I fell under his spell many a time when he held court at the Duke of Clarence, Hampton Hill in the late 1980's. Since then our Suburban Bon Viveur has retreated to his poet's garret, not far from Garrick's Temple to Shakespeare where he sends out his literary nuggets into polite society. Here he combines the two themes of the Jawspring exhibition.......
