Sean O'Brien (Author)


Available from these sellers.



Book Description

April 6, 2001
From the well known critic and poet comes his first new collection in 5 years Sean O'Brien has published four award-winning collections of poems, most recently Ghost Train (1995) which won the Forward Prize for Best collection. He has recently published the controversial study of contemporary poetry, The Deregulated Muse. His anthology of post war poetry from Britain and Ireland was a huge critical success outdoing all other competitors in the field and looks set to become THE book of the period. Sean O'Brien's poems are as perceptive and as wry as his criticism and often very darkly funny - getting to the heart of everyday lives and details with sensitivity and a little cynicism.
