- This monograph of approximately 300 pages stands as the author’s final book-length study on Northern Irish poetry. The book, the culmination of a thirty-year research career on the work of John Hewitt, Seamus Heaney, Michael Longley, Louis MacNeice and Derek Mahon is a comprehensive, extensive and innovative investigation of how Northern Irish poetry was enriched, complicated and extended through influence and interaction with North America. Praised for the “convincing case” made for “American influence in contemporary Northern Irish poetry”, it is a landmark text for the evaluation of transnational webs of connection in Irish and American writing.
