The Spirit Level

About this book

'An irresistibly coherent book which celebrates the rising and the raising of the human spirit.' Michael Hofmann, The Times

'If any poetry written today can have this 'redemptive effect' - as Heaney in his critical writing has begun to claim it can - then this is it.' Mick Imlah, Independent on Sunday
