In 2004, he was an assistant producer for the radio program Poetry by Post for the BBC World Service in London.[9] He was the president of József Attila Kör (Attila József Circle), an association for young Hungarian writers from 2006 to 2009.[10][11] He edited the literary journals Kalligram, Chroma and contributed to Clamantis: The MALS Journal.[12][13] He has also written articles for magazines like Magyar Narancs, Élet és Irodalom, and PRAE.[14]

Gerevich was adjunct professor of Screenwriting and Creative Writing at ELTE School of English and American Studies from 2011 to 2014. He is an associate professor of Screenwriting at Budapest Metropolitan University and adjunct professor of Screenwriting and New Media Writing at McDaniel College Budapest. He was a visiting professor of Creative Writing at Vassar College in fall 2016.[15]

Gerevich's first book of Poetry Átadom a pórázt (Handing Over the Leash) was first Published in 1997.[16] Since then four more volumes of his poetry has been published.[9][17] In 2008, his poems were translated into English under the title ″Tiresias's Confession″.[18] In 2010, his poems were part of Arc Publications' English-Hungarian bilingual anthology ″New Order: Hungarian Poets of the Post 1989 Generation″, which was edited by George Szirtes.[19] In 2017, Andrew Fentham received the Stephen Spender Prize for the translation of his poem "Balatoni Baleset (Balaton Accident)" into English.[20] Gerevich himself has translated many English poems and books into Hungarian. His first book of translation Különös gyümölcs (Strange Fruit), an anthology of translation of Seamus Heaney's poems was published in 1997.[21] His other translations include, The Man in the High Castle by Philip K. Dick and Catching the Big Fish by David Lynch.[22][23]

Literary style and themes

[edit]

George Szirtes who translated many of Gerevich's poems into English, called his poems "so clear, so pellucid, so free of metaphor and simile as to be almost pure speech." He further wrote that "they are mostly about love, desire, and passion; a little like a diary, a little like a letter, a little like a confessional, the first person singular being at the centre of each. But there is nothing self-indulgent about them."[24] Imre Payer of PRAE, praised "intentional free verse form" and "metaphor-less verse speech" in his poetry. He further wrote, "The emphasis on visuality and new sensibility is also proven by the fact that András Gerevich is especially good at composition. He knows and has mastered classical topical and acoustic tech very well."[25]

His poetry features homoerotic themes.[26][14] He also wrote homoerotic poetry under several pseudonyms for magazines like Mások.[27] Norman Jope of Tears in the Fence, wrote, "Gerevich, who apparently divides his time between Budapest and the English-speaking world, is much more than a poet of political protest alone - his work, on the whole, is characterized by a direct sensuality that you don't have to be gay to enjoy This defiant celebration of gayness is a perfect riposte to the family fascists, as in 'Marmaris.' On the other hand, writing about family matters doesn't necessarily make one a purveyor of so-called 'family values'."[28] Gerevich in an interview, said, “All my love poems have been written to men. Only in Hungarian, the pronouns do not have genders like in most languages. The third person singular is neutral; there is no difference between he and she.[c]“[1] In another interview he said that he does not reject the title of "gay poet", but he considers it "flat and one-dimensional." He further said, "The situation is fundamentally contradictory, since if a gay poet writes intimate, confessional poems, the question inevitably arises as to whether he assumes the social responsibility by which he becomes a kind of representative of the gay community. After all, creation is simple self-reflection, so yes, it is a situation that you have to learn to handle, you have to get used to."[30]

Szilárd Borbély in his review of Gerevich's second book Férfiak (Men, 2005) for Élet és Irodalom, wrote, "András Gerevich's second volume is about love between men in such a way that it also hides the code of autobiographical speech in the pieces of the volume. He also strongly stylizes, that is, he searches for a literary form, writes poems, but in a way that moves on the border of personal and allegorical translatability. In his stylized poetic language, which moves on the border between prose and lyric, the speaking minds speak in a language of omissions broken into stanzas. It becomes a true lyric by unraveling deep trauma through a system of symbols."[31]

His 2009 collection of poems, Friends (Barátok)[a], garnered critical acclaim. Viktória Radics in her review of Barátok, wrote, “András Gerevich, who until now attracted attention with his openness about sex between men in poetry, has now crossed the line of breaking the taboo. These current poems are shockingly good not because they write about the strange erotic-sexual experiences and bizarreness of gay relationships, but because they touch on the height and depth of love, sometimes even capture it.“[32] Könyves Magazine wrote, “Barátok goes beyond the poetics of chest hair[d] in the poems the homosexual theme is objectified in such a way that the experience material of the lyrical self holds exciting possibilities even for the reader who is not familiar with the homosexual experience.“[34]

His 2022 poetry collection Légzésgyakorlatok (Breathing Exercises) was described as a “shift from the theme of sex and physicality to ecopoetry and biopoetics.“[35] However, László Bedecs in his review in Jelenkor, wrote that "the title (and the titular poem) is still a cry" and "the intimate sphere just mentioned becomes more and more narrow due to external pressure". He further wrote that "if Gerevich's feelings are branded as something from which the children must be protected[e], i.e. as something bad, threatening, then it is no wonder that in the poem also cries out for space and air. Or you do breathing exercises to help you calm down. This, too, makes this volume a part of today's political discourse."[37][38]
