Field Work, which first appeared in 1979, is a superb collection of lyrics and narrative poems from one of the literary masters of our time. As the critic Dennis Donoghue wrote in The New York Times Book Review: In 1938, not a moment too soon, W. B. Yeats admonished his colleagues: Irish poets, learn your trade. Seamus Heaney, born the following year, has learned his trade so well that it is now a second nature wonderfully responsive to his first. And the proof is in Field Work, a superb book . . . This is a perennial poetry offered at a time when many of us have despaired of seeing such a thing. Seamus Heaney received the Nobel Prize in Literature in 1995. His recent translations include Beowulf and Diary of One Who Vanished his recent poetry collections include Opened Ground and Electric Light.
