FINDERS KEEPERS

Finders Keepers is a gathering of Seamus Heaney's prose of three decades. Whether autobiographical, topical or specifically literary, these essays and lectures circle the central pre-occupying questions 'How should a poet properly live and write? What is his relationship to be to his own voice, his own place, his literary heritage and the contemporary world?'

As well as being a selection from the poet's three previous collections of prose (Preoccupations, The Government of the Tongue and The Redress of Poetry), the present volume includes material from The Place of Writing, a series of lectures delivered at Emory University in 1988.

The Sharp and Gentle Side of an Irish Pen

The inspiration and vision of this humorous and insightful collection of poems and recitations undoubtedly flows from the Gaelic tradition of the seanachaí or storyteller.
Whilst drawing inspiration from life in his native Glenade in County Leitrim, the author's work is filled with keen observations and reflections on issues everyone encounters no matter what their background or where they live.
