Heaney's voice is like no other'by turns mythological and journalistic, rural and sophisticated, reminiscent and impatient, stern and yielding, curt and expansive' (Helen Vendler, The New Yorker)and this is a onevolume testament to the musicality and precision of that voice. The book closes with Heaney's Nobel Lecture: 'Crediting Poetry.'
