Poetry. Shearsman published Trevor Joyce's collected poems, WITH
THE FIRST DREAM OF FIRE THEY HUNT THE COLD, to great acclaim in
2001 (and a second edition of the book in 2003), and this volume
extracts his remarkable translation of the epic Sweeny Peregrine
from that volume and offers it together with a large group of other
versions from the Old and Middle Irish, thus offering Anglophone
readers a glimpse of some very unusual verse that rarely sees the
light of day outside academic volumes, while also transposing it
into a form that will seem familiar to readers of Joyce's own work.
