However he lost his inherited income as business ventures failed and he gave up writing.Waller was awarded the Keats Prize in 1974. In 1976 he helped set up the Salamander Oasis Trust. This was originally intended just to reprint Oasis, but Waller suggested collating as much as possible of the material that had not been used, which resulted in four anthologies.Waller lived in Isleworth, and in 1974 he married Anne Eileen Mileham. The marriage ended in divorce, without children; Lady Waller was declared bankrupt in 1990.He died at Ventnor, Isle of Wight on 22 January 1995.".
