Now in a mylar protector.** Seamus Heaney (1939-2013) is widely recognized as one of the most important Irish poets since Yeats, and one of the most popular modern poets to write in the English language. He won the Nobel Prize in Literature in 1995.**Heaney's poetry went through several stages of winnowing, from the early manuscript, the annotated typescript, to the the first publication in magazine or anthology. Heaney hand-picked from these poems to create the poetry collections published by Faber & Faber. This landmark work includes all of Heaney's major collections of poetry, together with the uncollected poems he left behind (including a few which he recognized were noteworthy). In addition, the appendix contains a selection of previously unpublished poems. (AJ)
