<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p><i>Field Work</i> is the record of four years during which Seamus Heaney left the violence of Belfast to settle in a country cottage with his family in Glanmore, County Wicklow. Heeding an early warning system to get back inside my own head, Heaney wrote poems with a new strength and maturity, moving from the political concerns of his landmark volume North to a more personal, contemplative approach to the world and to his own writing. In <i>Field Work</i> he brings a meditative music to bear upon fundamental themes of person and place, the mutuality of ourselves and the world (Denis Donoghue, <i>The New York Times Book Review).</i></p><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>"A superb book, the most eloquent and far-reaching book [Heaney] has written, a perennial poetry offered at a time when many of us have despaired of seeing such a thing." --<i>The New York Times</i><br><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br><p><b>Seamus Heaney</b> (1939-2013) received the Nobel Prize in Literature in 1995. His poems, plays, translations, and essays include <i>Opened Ground</i>, <i>Electric Light</i>, <i>Beowulf</i>, <i>The Spirit Level</i>, <i>District and Circle</i>, and <i>Finders Keepers</i>. Robert Lowell praised Heaney as the most important Irish poet since Yeats.</p>
