Description
Seamus Heaney's new collection explores the connections between people and the passing of time. In poems that reflect on memory and tradition, he examines how we are linked to one another and to our past. The collection includes newly discovered early Irish lyrics and poems that blend oral and written forms, as well as sequences that explore themes of family, friendship, and mortality. Heaney's unique voice brings a sense of intimacy and universality to these reflections on life, death, and the human experience. This is Seamus Heaney's twelfth collection of poetry, offering a nuanced and moving exploration of what it means to be alive and connected to others.
