Penguin Uk

This newly expanded collection of Derek Mahon's poems includes substantial portions of two earlier volumes, The Hudson Letter and The Yellow Book, and concludes with even more recent work. Mahon blends a respect for structure with a modernist style in evocative verses that are abstract yet substantial and combines solid images from nature with elusive, complex human thoughts.

Derek Mahon is considered by his peers and readers to be the most remarkable poet of his generation. He was born in 1941 in Belfast, and educated at Trinity, Dublin. He lived for some years in London, and now lives both in Dublin and New York. 'The Hunt by Night' was considered by Seamus Heaney on publication to be Mahon's 'most exuberant and authoritative single volume to date...There is a copiousness and excitement about these poems that is to be found only in work of the highest order.' This book is intended for poets, readers. admirers (many) of Mahon's work.

The Hunt by Night (Oxford Poets)

New Selected Poems is a book of singular abundance and formal verve, featuring poems of rare vision and dramatic power by a consummate and resilient artist. Demonstrating the wide range of Derek Mahon's verse, from the early lyricism to a more expansive middle period ('New York Time', 'Decadence') and the flowering of his late style, it includes recent, uncollected work and culminates in the generous, far-reaching reverie 'Dreams of a Summer Night'.
