Robinson’s subject is love, as love alone gives purpose to our brief existence. His “views” include loves won, lost, blessed, and cursed; love, too, of friends, family, and this Earth (more than 45 species of birds pass through these pages). Above all, 36 Views of Fuji is a testament to Robinson’s abiding love of the music of language — each word given its true weight.
Kenton Wing Robinson takes his middle name from his grandmother’s maiden name, as it was she who taught him to read and introduced him to Thomas Carew, her favorite metaphysical poet. Robinson achieved his first notoriety as a poet in the eighth grade, when an English teacher intercepted his poem alleging she had sex with hippopotami. His poems have been published in AGNI, The Litchfield Review, Connecticut River Review, Rattle, Arsenic Lobster, Lilliput Review, Feminist Studies and several other journals. He lives in Riverside, Rhode Island.
