Spirit Level: Poems
Spirit Level: Poems | Seamus Heaney, Heaney Seamus
4 posts | 1 read | 1 to read
"The Spirit Level" was the first book of poems Heaney published after winning the Nobel Prize in Literature in 1995. Reviewing this book in "The New York Times Book Review," Richard Tillinghast noted that Heaney "has been and is here for good . . . [His poems] will last. Anyone who reads poetry has reason to rejoice at living in the age when Seamus Heaney is writing."

I knew this book was used when I bought it, but this takes “Used” to a whole nother level! (I‘m holding onto my American Midwestern roots by saying “nother”.)

Every page is like this.

@BookishMarginalia - this makes me think of you! I hope you‘re well. 😊

I fell back in love w poetry after reading this back in December and began writing again. Such is the inspiration that Heaney's words evoked deep inside of me. Irish poets and Irish whiskey and the Irish countryside: all unnervingly beautiful.

I was about to take a photo of Seamus Heaney's book The Spirit Level in front of the fireplace but my husband was just about to put the fire out. So instead he got to pose with the book. He's a good sport, and at least in my book is poetry in motion!

This might just break the internet. 😂😂😂
