New Selected Poems collects the major work of one of Ireland's most admired and accomplished poets. Richard Murphy's first book, Sailing to an Island, received considerable acclaim when it was published in 1963. Since that auspicious beginning, Murphy has received increasing praise for such qualities as his ‘sureness of direction in the art and a poised and appeased self-knowledge' (Seamus Heaney).

In addition to poems from Sailing to an Island and The Battle of Aughrim (1968), this collection includes all of the poems published in High Island (1974) and Murphy's sequences, Care and The Price of Stone.

Condition: Very good for age, published 1989. Has some pen marks to text block, but otherwise in great condition.
