John Fouclher was far and away the best poetry teacher I ever had in my education.

John Foulcher’s ninth poetry collection, his first in ten years, had its genesis at the Keesing Studio in the Cite Internationale des Arts, Paris while he was the recipient of a travelling fellowship from the Literature Board of the Australia Council.

The Sunset Assumption is proudly published by Pitt Street Poetry, a new Sydney-based poetry imprint.

Also available is John Foulcher’s first collection, ‘Light Pressure’, originally published by Angus & Robertson in 1983 at the time Les Murray was the poetry editor at that distinguished Australian firm.

I didn’t like him or his classes, I always thought he was a bit too impressed with himself.

I’m not an artsy person by any means, but poetry class with Foulch was mighty awesome indeed. Hell, any english class. Sorely tempted to go just to say hi to him since it’s been ages (holy crap has it really been 18 years since I graduated?)
