 Guardian Unlimited Books | Obituaries | Thom Gunn
It was primarily to be with Kitay, his lifelong partner, that Gunn applied for a creative writing fellowship at Stanford University, California, which he was awarded in 1954 and where he worked with the great, if wayward, poet-critic Yvor Winters.
During the early 1960s, Gunn worked on two extended projects: the long poem Misanthropos, completed in London in 1964-65, about a man who thinks himself the sole survivor of the ultimate global war; and a book-length sequence of free-verse captions to photographs by his brother Ander, published as Positives (1966).
By now, Gunn's earlier aggressive-defensive mode had given way to a more open, flexible stance; and he was in the right place at the right time - San Francisco in the late 1960s - to explore this openness.

It is inevitable that comparisons are made with the Gunn Encyclopedia, and, for the cave geo-scientist, it is also useful to compare it with the Speleogenesis volume, edited by Alexander Klimchouk and friends, which appeared a few years ago.
Gunn is more encyclopedic, with much the widest coverage, which also includes surface karst.
Your reviewer has all three on his shelves, and uses them all; as he contributed to the Gunn tome and not to the others, it would be inappropriate to state his personal preferences.

 Thom Gunn
Then see if you can follow the way in which Gunn uses the analogy (parallel) of the actions of the motorcyclists to show how modern man in general (in the poem, referred to as “one”) lacks a clear sense of purpose and thus follows others, even if their activity, too, is ultimately purposeless.
There is a certain arrogance in Gunn's idea that religious faith (shown to be the religion of simple and aged Italian peasant women) is for the weak, as there is in the implied commendation of the heroic “large gesture” of Paul/the artist/Gunn himself.
Gunn is novel in using the motorcyclists as a source of metaphor.

Gunn is a Scottish name; my name is Gunn: therefore I am Scottish.
The reason that the conclusion is false is the implicit assumption that the first premise: “Gunn is a Scottish name” means all “Gunns” are Scottish: a trap I fell into as a boy.
To date, I have traced the line back to one William Gunn, born circa 1540, son of William Gunn, although there is a caveat on that conclusion.

 "Peter Gunn" (1958)   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-12)
When Gunn was not effortlessly staying two steps ahead of Jacobi, he was lizarding at Mother's, a waterfront jazz club, and getting his flirt on with its sultry headlining singer, blonde neutron bombshell Edie Hart, played by Lola Albright, a type of lady that might be defined as Marilyn Monroe's far more experienced sister.
The show's sense of cool was almost too much, but not quite, a fact that made it eminently watchable then, and has allowed it to live on even now in syndication.

 Amazon.com: Smokin Gunn: Music: Russell Gunn   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-12)
One of Gunn's marks of distinction is the evident influence of Booker Little, the brilliant trumpeter and composer who died at the age of 23 in 1961 (only some of the most thoughtful musicians, such as Kenny Wheeler and Dave Douglas, share this distinction).
There's an admirable sense of concision here, too, Gunn's ability to make tight, declarative statements extending to his take on Wynton Marsalis's "Delfeayo's Dilemma," which is less than 3 minutes long with just bass and drums accompaniment.
I'm sure Russell Gunn is not as familiar to followers of current jazz trends as Wynton Marsalis, Roy Hargrove or Nicholas Payton, but on the basis of this album he definitely deserves to be.
