Poetic Obituaries: David [Chaloner]'s mature poetry,

of which there is a lot--the Collected Poems (Salt Publishing, 2005) runs to 430 pages--is work of extended breath and deepened tone, wide-ranging in its effects. He developed a technique of rhythmic, chant-like repetition, which enforces a meditative calm and stasis on the narrative. The late sequence Art for Others (1998) offers an almost apocalyptic anger in a series of relentless monologues concerning the 1990s recession, from which he suffered greatly.
