Electric Light Reviews

3.5
“I've such respect for his stanzas, the only problem being that I don't understand many of his references around pastoral literature, and other Irish things. But many gems in this collection, that I highlighted rather fondly.”
“I much preferred the second part full of moving elegies. The first part I can see Heaney is returning to a lot of childhood memories, as well as drawing a lot on classical allusion, but I think maybe I lack the context to connect with them? My fave from the first part is The Border Campaign, perhaps no surprise as I love Beowulf!”
