Stepping Stones-Interviews with Seamus Heaney
Dennis O’Driscoll
Published by Faber & Faber, London, 2008

Beautiful hardcover with dust jacket now protected in removable cover. Widely regarded as the finest poet of his generation, Seamus Heaney is the subject of numerous critical studies; but no book-length portrait has appeared until now. Through his own lively and eloquent reminiscences, Stepping Stones retraces the poet’s steps from his early works, through to his receipt of the 1995 Nobel Prize for Literature and his post-Nobel life. It is supplemented with a large number of photographs, many from the Heaney family album and published here for the first time. Dennis O’Driscoll is superb in his management of this interview in which, with sublime tact and subtlety, he elicits the answers which portray the life and character of the Nobel Laureate. Collector’s Item. Seller Inventory # 524.
