A decent collection of poems of translated works. It tells the author and time period. Not the type of collection for me. Get some further information as well. The multiple paged one seems more story-like.
A collection from two marvelous poets. The versions of celtic poems are in the tradition of Seamus Heaney’s adaptation of Beowulf- they beautifully transport classic tales to the contemporary moment. Tony Hoagland provides a funny and charming touch, as has come to be expected from his lovely work. Definitely strongly recommend!
This book was beautiful! Poems and stories that originally derived from oral tradition in Celtic lands were translated in a stunning way to deliver a powerful book of poetry that is classic and beautiful but not at all old fashioned. This book was a beautiful bit of my heritage turned in to a format that was easily accessible.
