Description
Wolf Tongue: Selected Poems 1965-2000 by Barry MacSweeney A retrospective collection of poetry from one of Britain's most innovative and provocative voices, selected by the poet himself. This is the version he wanted to be remembered by, featuring his own choice of poems alongside two late works widely regarded as among his finest. Most of MacSweeney's poetry was previously out-of-print, with much material never widely published. The title "Wolf Tongue" reflects the poet's desire for authenticity and honesty in his work. The cover image is a personal touch, one that adds to the sense of intimacy and directness that pervades this selection. With 336 pages of unflinching verse, Wolf Tongue offers a unique insight into the life and work of Barry MacSweeney.
