<b>A </b><b><i>Times Literary Supplement</i></b> , <b><i>Telegraph</i></b> <b>and </b><b><i>Financial Times</i></b> <b>Best Book of 2025</b><br><b><br>'The glorious gathering-in of his achievement that is <i>The Poems of Seamus Heaney,</i> edited with meticulous care and luminous clarity. . . allows us for the first time to see his dozen formal collections as only the most visible peaks in a constantly rolling range of creativity.' Fintan O'Toole, <i>Observer</i></b><br><b><br>'This book is a landmark. [and] lets us see Heaney's work, whose ripples we are still learning to navigate, for the colossal achievement it is, and it reminds us that Heaney is not only a keeper but an enricher of the word-hoard.' Philip Terry, <i>Guardian</i></b><br><br>This is the long-awaited, definitive edition of Seamus Heaney's poetry. It encompasses all the poems Heaney published in his lifetime as well as the small number that appeared after his death: twelve single volumes, from <i>Death of a Naturalist </i>(1966) to <i>Human Chain</i> (2010), and those poems published in pamphlets, journals and magazines or with limited circulation. In addition, the book includes a selection of unpublished material chosen by the poet's family.<br><br>It is a body of work that, in its entirety, resounds with the 'lyrical beauty and ethical depth' cited by the Nobel committee: poems 'which exalt everyday miracles and the living past.'<br><br>Critical introductions to each collection and notes that illuminate the history and development of the poems make this the essential volume for admirers of Heaney's work.<br><br><i>'Heaney's voice, by turns mythological and journalistic, rural and sophisticated, reminiscent and impatient, stern and yielding, curt and expansive, is one of a suppleness almost equal to consciousness itself.' Helen Vendler</i><br><br><i>'More than any other poet since Wordsworth he can make us understand that the outside world is not outside, but what we are made of.' John Carey</i><br
