The definitive edition of his work, it encompasses all the poems that Seamus published in his lifetime (from Death of a Naturalist (1966) to Human Chain (2010)) alongside a number of previously unpublished poems.
Featuring readings and reflections on his work, John McAuliffe, Bernard O’Donoghue, Sinéad Morrissey, Leontia Flynn and Nick Laird together celebrate a body of work that shaped modern poetry and continues to resonate across generations.
