"There is a quality of intellect in this recent work — its varied influences, verbal play and thematic design — that beggars the work of many other writers. The Yellow Book is Mahon's Autumn Journal, much like MacNeice in its congenial (sometimes jaundiced or wistful) meditations." The Hudson Review

"Like a medieval painting whose archaic symbolism is lost on modern viewers, the beauty of McGuckian's work proves ravishing, uncanny." Megan Harlan, San Francisco Chronicle

February 2009

Wake Forest is pleased to reissue the selected poems of Louis MacNeice, one of the pivotal poets of modern times, a significant volume edited by Michael Longley.

The newest volume by Belfast poet Medbh McGuckian. Paperback with flaps
August 2010

"One of the most gifted--if not THE most gifted--of the post-War generation of Irish poets, Medbh McGuckian's new book is a masterpiece of psychic map-making. Her latest journey to the 'Inland' of her distinctive poetic world is full of the pencil-marks of invaluable loci, astonishing encounters, whirlpools of inner thought, of Irish desolation and worldly, linguistic redemption. Read this book, treasure it, let it make waves as it pulls you into the McGuckian inlands." Thomas McCarthy
