Mainly written in exile while Patrick FitzGerald served as a
full-time revolutionary, Epitaphs and Dreams, vividly expresses the
thoughts, emotions, situations, passions and challenges in the life
of a liberation cadre. Struggle themes are artfully threaded
through the inner-life of a lively and engaged intellect. The
author is at once the militant, the romantic, the analyst and the
sardonic observer - the poetry ranging from the delicate and
lyrical to powerfully directed narrative cadences. Several poems
poignantly memorialise fallen comrades, while others speak about
partings and regret, the punishments of distance and absence, and
close personal relationships whirled away in the time and tide of
struggle. The poetic voice evokes a past, but still lingering
world, when ideals were important and sacrifice and courage
critical mediums of everyday existence. These poems conjure
numerous traces of a time of great difficulties, but one less
mercenary and more value-driven than our current era.
