Plays & Poetry International

Published on his 75th birthday, this new selection presents just over a hundred of Brendan Kennelly's most essential poems, accompanied by an audio CD of his own readings drawn from two classic recordings.

The ultimate reader's companion to poetry: a selection of 100 classic poems from five centuries with lively "companion" commentary to go with and illuminate each poem. Modern poets include Delmore Schwartz, whose sense of conflict between self and society gave birth to this anthology's title-poem, 'The Heavy Bear Who Goes With Me'.
