Seamus Heaney - A Shiver (Clutag Press, 2005) |
A Shiver, nine new poems by Seamus Heaney, published Summer/Fall 2005.
Limited edition of 300 copies. NOW SOLD OUT
24pp 170mm x 240mm ISBN 0-9547275-4-1
How Seamus Heaney has always held his ground, through thick and thin, is something of a miracle, like the preservation in a Danish peat-bog of the Tollund Man, now revisited in this collection (‘The Tollund Man in Springtime’) and given a clean bill of health. Here in A Shiver Heaney’s ground is reaffirmed, found and kept and a stance maintained, in lifelong love, though glaciers melt and Jupiter (after Horace, Odes I, 34) finds ground zero: ‘Anything can happen, the tallest things / Be overturned, those high places daunted, / Those overlooked regarded.’

 My Childhood, John McNeillie's previously unpublished account of his childhood and youth-time at North Clutag farm, was launched on 25th September 2004.
Praise for My Childhood and its author:
‘In the way it demarcates and celebrates its parish, and the calm brightness of the writing, My Childhood avoids the sepia tone of so much contemporary childhood memoir. It also offers a valuable reminder, in this ironic age, of the considerable cumulative power of sincerity as a writing mode.’ Robert Macfarlane, TLS
