Hugo Williams was born in 1942 and grew up in Sussex. He worked on the London Magazine from 1961 to 1970, since when he has earned his living as a journalist and travel writer. Billy's Rain won the T. S. Eliot Prize in 1999. His Collected Poems was published by Faber in 2002 and his last collection, I Knew the Bride, was shortlisted for the Forward and T. S. Eliot prizes in 2014. He writes a freelance column for the TLS and lives in London.
'Possibly the most original poet of his generation in England.' Edna Longley 'Hugo Williams's poetry is among the brightest on the contemporary scene - vivacious, human, lucid, sad and funny.' Douglas Dunn 'He writes with a clarity unequalled among his contemporaries.' Peter Porter
