The Outnumbered Poet: Critical and Autobiographical Essays, by Dennis O’Driscoll - Dublin Review of Books

The Outnumbered Poet: Critical and Autobiographical Essays, by Dennis O’Driscoll - Dublin Review of Books | The Irish Literary Times | Scoop.it
It must have been in the early 1980s that I first met Dennis O’Driscoll, possibly after he published his first poetry collection, Kist (1982), and before the follow-up collection, Hidden Extras (1987). Dennis contributed to a review I was editing in Galway called Krino. The review was launched ‑ by Stephen Rea ‑ in Buswell’s Hotel in Dublin and I have a recollection of meeting him there as well. - See more at: http://www.drb.ie/essays/the-listener#sthash.7yRvXBSj.dpuf

Poems 1952-2012, by Richard Murphy - Gerald Dawe

Book-ended by “The Pleasure Ground” as a prose introduction and by an appendix of over thirty pages of notes and readings, Poems 1952-2012 has the distinct look of being a complete collection of all the poems which the 86-year-old Richard Murphy wishes to keep in print. This is a shaped and deliberated volume with clearly established timelines established in six parts and dates identifying how, where and when Murphy’s poems first emerged.  - See more at: http://www.drb.ie/essays/outlasting-fashion#sthash.h9vL3NFK.dpuf
