These evocations of wilderness and the natural world draw on the author's experience living for a year on Inishmore, one of the Aran Islands off the west coast of Ireland. In the tradition of William Butler Yeats, the poems look to Celtic traditions, are sometimes formal in structure, rely on straightfoward and striking language, and change in mood from joy to rage to elegy.
