The collected poems, 1956-1994

Edición de la obra Poems

The Collected Poems of the distinguished poet Thomas Kinsella contains virtually all his own poems, written over the last forty years. The early books, of the 1950s and '60s, include occasional poems, lyrics, and historical and political sequences. Then follow poems of local and family settings, with a growing mythical and allegorical element. Later comes a more public poetry ('Butcher's Dozen', for instance, on the Bloody Sunday shootings in Derry in 1972.).
