Author: GREG DELANTY
Title: American Wake
Description: Blackstaff Press, 1995. Pocket. Pp: 61. Leaving home for America, Irish emigrants hold an 'American wake', a gathering that is both festive and mournful. This new collection from Greg Delanty articulates those complex emotions through living evocations of Ireland and nervy, excited responses to the dislocating vastness of America. Whether recalling a pubcrawl in the Bronx or the 'glorious banter' of his Irish friends, he achieves a finely poised balance between the lyrical and the conversational. Here the classic Irish themes of exile and loss emerge as forceful presences, given fresh clarity as Delanty traverses the physical landscapes of 'city, prairie, bush or bog' and the internal landscapes of memory. ISBN: 9780856405495. Cond./Kwaliteit: Goed.
