The Spring 2018 issue of The Bitter Oleander features an in-depth interview with European Editor, poet and translator John Taylor. Editor and Publisher Paul B. Roth delves into a variety of issues and interests with Taylor, including influences on his writing; his bout with polio and interest in mathematics in his youth; the value of “slow” travel – trains being a particular favorite mode of transportation and thought/work space for Taylor; the situation of being an American writer living abroad and the concepts of ‘foreignness’ and ‘otherness’; and the “subtle positivity” of Taylor’s writings. The interview is accompanied by over a dozen pages of Taylor’s work.
