Heathcote Williams, radical poet, playwright, actor, and friend of Sinclair Beiles, dies

Heathcote Williams, the radical poet, playwright, actor and polymathic English genius, has died at the age of 75. He had been ill for some time and died on Saturday in Oxford.

He was the author of many polemical poems, written over four decades in a unique documentary style. They included works about the devastation being wrought on the natural environment – Sacred ElephantWhale Nation and Falling For a Dolphin – and Autogeddon, a grim and majestic attack on the car.

Heathcote Williams also contributed a chapter to the revised edition of Who was Sinclair Beiles?
