Product Description
It is Eamonn Wall’s exceptional achievement as a poet to have extended the sources and vision of his work on the open road of America while remaining vividly in step with whatever he encounters anywhere, and to have done so without losing sight of the horizon of the past likewise expanding intricately behind. His work also stands as witness to the migrant nature of human existence. At the same time, Wall’s ambition to create a technically hybrid poetry that draws from the aesthetic resources of both the Irish and American traditions of verse-making has found greater and greater impress in the work, as well as greater and greater variety. Junction City: New & Selected Poems 1990-2015 is an indispensable carryall filled with this remarkable poet’s best and most exemplary poems from his six previous books. These, together with the new poems of “The Gathering Suite,” confirm Eamonn Wall’s place as one of our very best and most essential poets writing on either side of the Atlantic.
These Salmon Poetry books have come into us unused and unopened but due to the storage in their last location they might have some scuffs or marks on the edges of the pages
