Product Description
The poems in this, Mc Cabe's first collection, reflect his belief in the druidic function of poetry. The metaphor of silence presents, while honouring writers and the late Prof. Augustine Martin, both the grave and the birthplace of language. The poems shift from suburban Dublin to the West of Ireland, notably Clare Island. A long poem focuses on World War II to explore the futility of violence and the mystery of suffering.
