This is the long-awaited, definitive edition of Seamus Heaney's poetry.
It encompasses all the poems Heaney published in his lifetime as well
as the small number that appeared after his death: twelve single
volumes, from Death of a Naturalist (1966) to Human Chain (2010), and
those poems published in pamphlets, journals and magazines or with
limited circulation. In addition, the book includes a selection of
unpublished material chosen by the poet's family.
It is a body of work that, in its entirety, resounds with the 'lyrical
beauty and ethical depth' cited by the Nobel committee: poems 'which
exalt everyday miracles and the living past.'
Critical introductions to each collection and notes that illuminate the
history and development of the poems make this the essential volume for
admirers of Heaney's work.
