The Collected Poems of George Mackay Brown

Buch

George Mackay Brown is recognized as one of Scotland's greatest 20th-century lyric poets. His work is integral to the flowering of Scottish literature during the last 50 years. Admired by many fellow poets, including Seamus Heaney and Douglas Dunn, his poems are deeply individual and unmistakable in their setting: the small green world of the Orkney Islands where he lived for most of his life, with its elemental forces of sea and sky and Norse and Icelandic ancestry, is brought vividly and memorably to life. Here, his rich and resonant poetry is collected in one volume, making available again many poems that are otherwise out of print.
