The Weather in Japan
The poems in this volume vary widely in length, subject, and setting (from Mayo, to Tuscany, to Japan). With a Zen-like grace, even the briefest poems hurdle logical gaps and sidestep reason to get to truths. The poet’s acute vision is directed outward, and we know him only through the light he casts on the world’s things as he holds them in loving, elegiac frames. Winner of the Irish Times Irish Literature Prize for Poetry, 2001; Winner of the T. S. Eliot Poetry Prize, 2001; Winner of the Hawthornden Prize, 2000.
