Nearly all his work has been supported by public money, whether through education as a Lecturer in English at the University of York, or through Arts Council funding of books, fellowships and opera, or through the NHS income of his wife Mireille. Since 1992, he has lived in Sheffield with his family. He is working on a new collection of poems, and on a book about poets confronting death.view less
