Born in 1932, Peter Redgrove is a poet, novelist and lay psychoanalyst with an academic background in natural science. He is the most prolific English poet of the last 20 years and many would argue the most original, standing outside any school or movement. His poetry combines an abundant metaphorical imagination with the precision of a scientific sensibility, and reflects a deep preoccupation with religious and sexual mysteries. Eroticism and humour have been a powerful combination in his work. Peter Redgrove has been described by Philip Hobsbawm as "the most imaginative and vital poet of the last 30 years".
