Semibreve Paperback / softback
by John F. Deane
Paperback / softback
Description
John F. Deane is a vital presence in contemporary Irish poetry.
The poems in this new collection combine lyric grace with a fiercely questing intelligence, pushing against the mysteries of faith in a fractured world, paying tribute to the value of human life and love.
Running through the book is a thread of elegy for the poet's brother, who died of cancer in 2010.
The collection concludes with a sequence describing a pilgrimage to the Holy Land.
Throughout, Deane gives poetic voice to the paradox of human existence as simultaneously 'blessed and broken'.
