Poet, novelist, critic and recorder C. K. Stead was born in Auckland, New Zealand, in 1932. From the late 1950s, he began to earn an international reputation as a poet and literary critic - his book The New Poetic (1964) has sold over 100,000 copies - and, later, as a novelist. He has published more than 40 books and received numerous honours recognising his contribution to literature, including a CBE (1974), an Honorary DLitt from the University of Bristol (2001), the Creative New Zealand Michael King Fellowship (2005), the Order of New Zealand (2007) and in 2009 the Prime Minister's Award for Fiction and the Montana New Zealand Book Award (Reference and Anthology) for his Collected Poems.
