Classic leather rebinding of W. B. Yeats ‘The Poems’
Daniel Albright’s edition of Yeats’s poems is the most scholarly available. Not only are the poems newly edited to present a close approximation to the ‘sacred book’ Yeats hoped to bequeath to the world, but they are accompanied by detailed explanatory notes and a long introductory essay which help make accessible the work of a poet who pushed imagination to its outer limits yet disciplined his images by confining them to strict lyrical forms.

Classic leather rebinding of Irish Poems
Literary giants Yeats and Heaney are surrounded by a host of other poets – Patrick Kavanagh, Louis MacNeice, Derek Mahon, Eiléan Ní Chuilleanáin, Eavan Bolan, Ciaran Carson and Paul Muldoon, to name but a few – in this anthology of the best of Irish poetry. With its roots in the devotional verse of the early Christian church and the long lyric poems of the Irish bards, Irish poetry has a rich and robust tradition both of engagement and self-reflection. It has grappled long with politics, providing the most eloquent response to Ireland’s turbulent history; it has encompassed religion, so much a part of Ireland’s cultural heritage; it has soaked itself in the Irish landscape and Celtic myth and has given an original slant to everyday experience and affairs of the heart. Thematically organized and spanning many centuries, this selection also features a section on Gaelic poetry in translation.

Classic leather rebinding of Yeats Poems
A leader of the twentieth-century Irish nationalist movement, who eventually became one of the Free State’s first senators, William Butler Yeats (1865-1939) is also the greatest poet that Ireland has yet produced. The present selection includes poems from every period of his life, dealing with all the topics closest to his hear: love, death, old age, ambition, the poet’s craft, and of course the history and destiny of Ireland.
