An Excellent Beginning,
By A Customer
This review is from: Contemporary Irish Poetry, New and Revised editon (Paperback)
Bradley's sure hand makes "Contemporay Irish Poetry" an engaging introduction to Irish poetry after Yeates, and his selections - such writers are Kavenaugh, Clarke, Kinsella and Nobel Laureate Seamus Heaney - show an eye for the major figures of today and thier influential predecessors, while not neglecting younger voices. Bradley's judicious selections from the individual writers lend a sense of their larger oeuvre, and the arrangement of the poets, the short bios which preface thier work and the convenient notes allow the reader to gain a sense of the larger issues of 20th century Ireland which the poets confront in their work. Very nicely done.
