	Guardian Unlimited Books \| By genre \| Review: The Chameleon Poet: A Life of George Barker by Robert Fraser
		Barker wrote 19 books of poetry, had almost as many children by several women, was a Catholic, a bisexual, and never had a regular income, preferring instead to scrounge from rich friends or write pornography for Anaïs Nin at a dollar a page.
		Barker's continual good luck is all the more remarkable because, as Fraser puts it with some tact, the "vigour of his expression was to depend on a marked sense of violation".
		Barker's outbursts of verbal and physical violence against his wives and lovers seem to have been accepted by them as a part of the necessary expression of the artistic temperament.

	Tracey Emin - Artists on an Eternal Picnic: Bohemians such as George Barker Lived in Creative Chaos on the Margins of ... (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-02)
		In The Chameleon Poet, Robert Fraser's recent biography of George Barker, who died in 1991 at the age of 78, it comes on a summer evening in the 1980s when a visitor from London turns up at the Barkers' rambling, chaotic house in north Norfolk.
		In fact, what Barker represents, in half a dozen different and dazzling ways, is the absolute fag-end of what might be called the bohemian tradition in English literary life.
		If this cavalcade of down-at-heel artists and garret-inhabiting poets had a focus it was the area west of the Charing Cross and Tottenham Court Roads known as "Fitzrovia", described recently in Characters of Ficzrovia by Mike Pentelow and Marsha Rowe (Chatto Windus).

		It is not an easy read, but only as hard as it has to be, and those who read it will come away in some way better persons for a time at least, and with the knowledge that they have done something important.
		As for the poet, she has created a technique which enables her to put the full range of her life interests into her poem—not a common fate even among good writers.
		Of the many devices that enhance this poem, mention must be made that, without distortion or intrusion, it includes a device used by some poets in Scotland, England, and America in the seventeenth century (and in some other literatures at other times).

		Indeed, the Press was launched with an event at the Purcell Room in September 1979 when George Barker, William Empson, David Gascoyne, W S. Graham, John Heath-Stubbs and John Wain all read from their work.
		That the Greville Press should simultaneously publish a first collection by Kate Ellis, a 16-year-old schoolgirl from Derby, and the first translations of the poems of Arseny Tarkovsky, father of the filmmaker Andrey Tarkovsky, is typical of the small firm's exhilarating eclecticism....
		The only rules in making the selection was that the poem should be written in English, be reprinted in full and exclude living poets so that the choice could be made from the entire body of the poet's work.

	MTV Movies \| Geography of the Body \| Plot
		Extreme close-ups of nude male and female bodies, taken through a magnifying glass bought at a dime store, are combined with a surrealist text written and read by poet George Barker.
		The poem, in Barker's deadpan reading, comments humorously on the body parts, which are photographed in such tiny detail that they appear as landscapes.
		Although by the year 2000 it appears as a relatively quaint antique (and is in serious need of preservation assistance), Geography of the Body was easily as influential in its day as Maya Deren and Alexander Hammid's Meshes of the Afternoon, made the same year.
