Seamus Heaney Collected Poems

Rare CD box set of Seamus Heaney reading all his poems is made available again with additional poems to represent his final collection, Human Chain. A 16 CD box set, containing 18 hours of listening.

Recorded in 2009, Nobel Laureate Seamus Heaney reads his first eleven collections of poems in their entirety. In this new edition Faber has added live readings by the poet of eleven poems from his final collection, Human Chain (2010), to complete the collection.

'His is "close-up" poetry - close up to thought, to the world, to the emotions. Few writers at work today, in verse or fiction, can give the sense of rich, fecund, lived life that Heaney does.' John Banville

'More than any other poet since Wordsworth he can make us understand that the outside world is not outside, but what we are made of.' John Carey

'Heaney's voice, by turns mythological and journalistic, rural and sophisticated, reminiscent and impatient, stern and yielding, curt and expansive, is one of a suppleness almost equal to consciousness itself.' Helen Vendler

'There are few poets whose reading voice is so crucial to the poems' effect' - Bernard O'Donoghue, The Irish Times.
