{"product_id":"9781857545579","title":"Collected Poems by Thomas Kinsella","description":"Thomas Kinsella stands apart in modern Irish poetry. His work, employing traditional and modernist elements in individual poems and open sequences, deals in a range of subjects from the most intense and psychic privacy to political satire and social commentary, from love and the enabling feminine to metaphysical speculation in a variety of earthly settings. Kinsella is a city poet. Born in Dublin in 1928, he attended University College, and entered the Irish Civil Service, but resigned from the Department of Finance in 1965 for a career in poetry in the United States. He published from the beginning with the Dolmen Press, later co-publishing his poetry and translations with Oxford University Press. His translations from the Irish include the Iron-Age prose epic \"The Tain\" and \"Poems of the Dispossessed: 1600-1900\". He is editor of the \"New Oxford Book of Irish Verse\".\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Paperback \/ softback","brand":"Gardners","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56308203061621,"sku":"9781857545579","price":25.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0612\/7193\/3106\/files\/9781857545579.jpg?v=1762806771","url":"https:\/\/backstory.london\/products\/9781857545579","provider":"Backstory","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
