Greg Delanty: Collected Poems, 1986-2006

Plot

Seven poetry collections, including 15 previously unpublished poems, are brought together in this single volume, revealing Greg Delanty's resourcefulness and engaging wit. He explores common experiences—family life, love, friendship, the natural world, and the political world—in unexpected ways, offering the combination of a lyrical Irish voice with a keen outsider's sense of the United States. Using a sequence of metaphors, the poems evoke the subtle interconnections of people and places, past and future.
