Selected Poems
Author(s): Derek Mahon
Represented in all modern anthologies by his great poem on Irish history "A Disused Shed in Co Wexford", Derek Mahon is regarded with Heaney and Longley as the leader of the resurgence of Irish poetry. He writes lyric poetry of elegance and scepticism. Revisiting his older work, this title also contains work from his volume, "Harbour Lights".
