Selected and New Poems

0 - Default Title
Description
Michael Hartnett’s Selected and New Poems reveals a crucial body of work in Irish poetry. It includes a number of his precocious lyrics (poems written in his teens); exquisite love poems and early elegies; some pastoral poems and, later, farewells to pastoral. Hartnett’s celebrated declaration to write in Irish introduces a series of translations and announces the more public arguments of subsequent poems in English. The book concludes with five extended parables about salvation and the artistic life. It is irrefutable evidence of a singular dedication and achievement.
