"Even So reveals the extent to which Mark Roper's move from the UK
to the Kilkenny countryside in 1980 has liberated his imagination
and, by allowing him to report on lived, day-to-day experience,
helped him to become an extraordinarily distinguished 'nature
poet'-or, perhaps the better term, 'poetic naturalist'. Ireland's
gift to the poet has been an environment that is still relatively
unspoiled, and continues to permit ancient harmonious relationships
between land-working humans and the birds, beasts, woodland, pools
and pastures with which their lives interweave. Roper's gift to his
adopted home, and to the great poetic tradition of 'nature writing'
in these islands, is laid out here, in this wonderfully varied
miscellany of new work and selections from his earlier volumes." -
Carol Rumens, from the Introduction
