Angel Hill

About this book

A celebration of nature, memory, and place in contemporary verse.

Michael Longley's Angel Hill explores the landscapes of Carrigskeewaun, County Mayo, and Lochalsh in the Western Highlands, offering a soul-stirring journey through the natural world. These poems reflect on the beauty and fragility of the environment, the power of memory, and the enduring connections of family.

Longley's verses evoke a sense of nostalgia and wonder, inviting readers to contemplate the intermingling of poet and painter's imaginations. With themes of loss, mortality, and the solace found in nature, Angel Hill is a collection for those who appreciate lyrical language and profound reflection. This collection is perfect for readers of contemporary poetry, Irish literature, and nature writing.
