Recenzii
Review from previous edition With its bibliographical thoroughness, attention to biography, manuscripts friendships, and politics, its coverage of Mahon's journalism, reviews and translations as well as the poetry, and its extended close readings The Poetry of Derek Mahon is the model of what a book on a single poet out to be
...a valuable book of evidence about one of the most gifted and complex poets of his generation that no one wil be able, in future debates, to ignore.
generous, intelligent, lucidly written, bright and brimming with insights and information... [a] welcome, admirably achieved book
excellently done... exact and unpretentious criticism.
The study as a whole is a masterpiece of overview combined with detailed attention. I have no doubt that it will come to be seen as not merely the standard work on Mahon, but one of the critical cornerstones for the understanding both of Northern Irish Poetry and of contemporary poetry in English in general, on both sides of the Atlantic.
