Synopsis

Ireland is a country rich and deep in literary heritage. But it is in poetry that the full breadth and depth of that heritage has been explored. 'A Treasury of Irish Verse' captures all that is best in Irish poetry. It features poems of passion, despair, hope and beauty by a wide range of Irish poets - James Clarence Mangan, W.B. Yeats, Louis MacNeice, Patrick Kavanagh, Seamus Heaney, Paul Durcan and many others. On every page, words and carefully chosen full-colour illustrations complement each other and capture the unique character of the Irish. The joys and sadness of the Irish, their hopes and aspirations, their love of culture and history shine through in every line. 'A Treasury of Irish Verse' encapsulates everything that is best in the Irish poetic tradition.
