An Fear Glas : the Green Man by Cathal Searcaigh
One of the major poets of modern Ireland, Cathal Searcaigh has made a huge contribution to the range and scope of Irish language literature over the past four decades. This volume, drawn from six ground-breaking collections published over the past fifteen years, testifies to his lyrical genius and his enduring importance at the very heart of what is happening in Gaelic literature today. Here, Paddy Bushe, Gabriel Rosenstock and Frank Sewell, three of the most noted translators of contemporary Irish language literature, use the full range of their brilliance to render Searcaigh's work into faithful but fully realized English language poems.
Searcaigh mixes the open-singing eroticism of Whitman with a sharp eye for the profound minutiae of the physical world"" - Billy Collins

His collections of poetry include Homecoming / An Bealach 'na Bhaile; Na Buachaillí Bána; An Tnúth leis an tSolas, for which he received 2001 The Irish Times Irish Literature Prize for the Irish language; and Gúru i gClúidíní.
