OverviewUnder the project title Double Vision, Dedalus simultaneously publishes two new books by Paddy Bushe, described by Bernard O’Donoghue as “the leading poet writing in both Irish and English”. In Peripheral Vision, his new collection of poems in English, Bushe explores the relationship between seeing and vision, between the often solitary pilgrimage of the artist and the collective journey of the arts in their many expressions and forms. Second Sight, meanwhile, draws attention to his achievements in Irish, presenting in a dual-language format the poet’s own selection from three previous volumes, together with his own English language translations. Together, these two books offer a comprehensive and timely overview of the work of one of the most significant of contemporary Irish poets.

It breaks my heart', one gets the feeling that Bushe is at ease in both languages. If there is tension, it is sublimated within the consummate craft of his work in both English and Irish. -- Liam Carson, Poetry Ireland Review Author InformationTab Content 6Author Website:Countries AvailableAll regions |
