Chorus and Coda (ISBN 978-0955092671 from The Littoral Press) is a retrospective and contemporary selection of work by a writer who has been described as “a careful exact craftsman” and “not one who rushes everything into print” (Essex Countryside).
Adrian Green lives overlooking the sea at Southend, Essex, the county where he was born. He has been reviews editor of Littoral, a magazine featuring poetry and articles of nature and the spirit, editor of SOL magazine, and has published 2 pamphlet collections – Beachgame (1977) and The Watchers (1987) - as well as poems and reviews in a number of magazines and anthologies. Formerly chairman of Open University Poets, he is current secretary of the Southend Poetry Group, with which he has been associated since the mid-1970s. He has degrees in psychology and general arts as well as a post-graduate diploma in humanities.
After an early musical education, he turned to poetry for creative expression as a teenager. His interest in jazz stems from the discovery of recordings by the likes of Mutt Carey and Bunk Johnson around the same time. This subsequently developed into an eclectic appreciation of all forms of music and literature.
