The first collection of poems in eight years from one of Ireland's most accomplished lyric poets invokes and explores the pastoral imagination in poems about grief, love's remote history, and a more recent past. In poems that, in his words, are written from a "melancholy distance," McDonald finds new shapes that reflect the difficult, contradictory relations of people to place and environment.
