Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. It is Eamonn Wall's exceptional achievement as a poet to have extended the sources and vision of his work on the open road of America while remaining vividly in step with whatever he encounters anywhere, and to have done so without losing sight of the horizon of the past likewise expanding i…ntricately behind.His work also stands as witness to the migrant nature of human existence. At the same time, Wall's ambition to create a technically hybrid poetry that draws from the aesthetic resources of both the Irish and American traditions of verse-making has found greater and greater impress in the work, as well as greater and greater variety.Eamonn Wall is a native of Co. Wexford who emigrated to the USA in 1982. He lives in St. Louis and is employed by the University of Missouri-St. Louis as Smurfit-Stone Corporation Professor in Irish Studies. He teaches courses in Irish, Irish-American and British Literature, curates the university's Irish Lectures and Performances Series, and directs the summer study abroad program in Galway. An indispensable carryall filled with the poet's best and most exemplary poems from his six previous books. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. The rich narrative poems in My Aunts at Twilight Poker provide nuanced and many-sided explorations of Irish and Diasporic life--with particular focus on Eamonn Wall's hometown of Enniscorthy, Co. Wexford, and on St. Louis, Missouri, where he had lived for the past two decades--as both have u…nfolded through the past century. A focal point of the collection is Annie Murphy-Flood, the author's grandmother, who arrived in Enniscorthy as a newly married young woman in the early 20th century to open a business and start a family. Her life, practice, and the example she set form the moral force that guides this collection. The book is also a homage to the lives of those who have been written out of history, and a personal response to a town that has changed but endured. In some respects a family history, My Aunts at Twilight Poker also highlights the role that places play in the development of their inhabitants. Writing from a distance across time and space allows Eamonn Wall the opportunity to recreate and observe quietly but uniquely. One home place is observed from another home place: we can belong to more than one town, city, or country. In poems that focus on the lives of the Irish overseas, Eamonn Wall asserts their connectedness to and roots in Ireland and wherever across the globe they have settled. Formally varied and blissfully alive, My Aunts at Twilight Poker is a finely tuned work, charged and captivating. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. In his most wide-ranging work to date, Eamonn Wall probes and meditates on the histories, habitations, landscapes and ecologies of ancestral and newly-encountered places. A Tour of Your Country takes the reader from the American West to the Arctic to Wall's native Wexford, and to some spaces… in-between. Throughout, the poems record and explore the finely-tuned tension that exists between the road and home, between routes and roots, and between the physical world and how poets have been conditioned to observe and represent it. This new collection is a highly-charged literary work-one that engages in dialogues with an array of sources to create a new kind of map of the space that is common to us all."Resident now for over 25 years in the US, Eamonn Wall celebrates life, wherever he may be, with a kind of unwitting optimism. He eavesdrops in Idaho on the chit chat of two women knitting in the Hammer Coffee Shop, Boise, where "the espresso machine shrieks up / and up higher than the radio like / Ian Gillan on an old long-player". The latter is perhaps the most accessible poem in this, Wall's fifty book for Salmon Poetry. Always conscious throughout his work of the US immigrant experiences of other peoples as well as his own Irish one, the poet recalls the passage by train of Basque shepherds to their new holdings in another Idaho poem, Basque Museum, Boise. Irish history, heritage and, indeed, bird life, are abiding features in the Wall mindscape, while the poems 'Helsinki Sequence' and 'Kaamos' are inspired by time spent in Finland. A hugely impressive collection."Paddy Kehoe, RTE ReviewEamonn Wall is a native of Enniscorthy, Co. Wexford, who now lives in Missouri. A Tour of Your Country is his fifth volume of poetry to be published by Salmon. His essays and articles are collected in From the Sin-e Cafe to the Black Hills (University of Wisconsin Press). He teaches at the University of Missouri-St. Louis. The fourth collection for this St. Louis poet. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. Sailing Lake Mareotis, Eamonn Wall's sixth collection to be published by Salmon Poetry, is both thematically and formally his most diverse and engaging work to date. In lyric poems, satires, and flash fictions, Wall engages robustly and ironically with the contemporary American and Irish wor…lds. He explores the lives of individuals hidden from society's gaze, forced to live on the margins of American and Irish societies. At the same time, Sailing Lake Mareotis displays Wall's intense engagement with and celebration of the living space we all share and offers up tender lyric poems to family and the natural world."His poems are charged with a thoroughly contemporary and a profoundly literary awareness of what it means to be Irish, and a writer in America." Kathleen McCracken, Poetry Ireland ReviewA native of Enniscorthy, Co. Wexford, Eamonn Wall emigrated to the US in 1982, where he is currently Professor of Irish Studies at the University of Missouri-St. Louis. He is the author of five other collections of poetry, most recently A Tour of Your Country (2008), all published by Salmon Poetry. His essays, articles and reviews of Irish, Irish American, and American writers have appeared in the Irish Times, the Irish Literary Supplement, the Washington Post, the Chicago Tribune and many other journals on both sides of the Atlantic. A many-sided exploration of a fine and fractured world, exploring the intricate ways in which contemporary attitudes and practices honor and defile what has been inherited from the past.
