About This Item
NY: Farrar Straus & Giroux, 1985. 1st US. Hardcover. Very Good/Very Good. Hardcover in a bright dust jacket, 123 pages. The title poem is set on an island that has been a site of pilgrimage in Ireland for over a thousand years. A narrative sequence, it is an autobiographical quest concerned with "the growth of a poet's mind.'" There are also many poems with richly meditative lyrics and the final section is in the voice of the legendary Sweeney, a king of Ulster. A marvelous group of poems, this was Heaney's sixth major collection and many believe it ranks among his best. Previous owner's name, date on the front fly leaf, otherwise clean. Record # 385839
