Description
Betjeman in Ireland is a charming and intimate portrait of a man and his relationship with the Emerald Isle. Dominic Moseley's book explores the poet's enduring fascination with Ireland, from his love of the countryside to his friendships with the Anglo-Irish aristocracy, and his own life of love and poetry.
Through a series of often inter-linked themes, Moseley brings to life the complex and charming man behind the poetry. With the same light-hearted touch that characterises Betjeman's verse, the book reveals the poet's many visits to Ireland, his experiences as Press Attaché to the British mission to Dublin, and the inspirations behind some of his most famous poems.
Written by someone who has long admired Betjeman's work, this book is a worthwhile read for anyone interested in the poet's life and times.
