Weather in Japan ReviewSurely this is Michael Longley's best book yet, even more consistently fine than his Whitbread-winning GORSE FIRES. In the past Longley has written frequently about the violence in Northern Ireland, and he does so briefly here ("All of These People," "A Prayer")--but more often these poems address the two world wars and their aftermaths ("The War Graves," "The Bullet Hole"). He also returns to his interest in classics: many poems deal with Homer ("In the Iliad") and the several Latin poets he admires ("Remembering the Poets"). Perhaps what most distinguishes this collection from Longley's earlier books is its half-dozen poems about quilts (the best of which may be "Broken Dishes" and "The Yellow Teapot"). Anyone who enjoys Longley's earlier work should certainly read this, and anyone unfamiliar with him would find this one of the most winning introductions.Weather in Japan OverviewConsolidating and expanding on the vision of his two previous collections, Longley takes the reader through the various hells we have made this century, from the fields of Flanders, through Terezin and Auschwitz to the troubled north of Ireland. In images drawn from Italy, America and Japan he explores the fundamentals of home and civilisation.--This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.
