Wolf Tongue
Selected Poems 1965-2000
About Barry MacSweeney's Last Book
Barry MacSweeney's last book, "The Book of Demons", recorded his fierce fight against alcoholism as well as the great love of those who helped save his life — though only for three more years. When he died in 2000, he had just assembled a retrospective of his work.
About "Wolf Tongue"
"Wolf Tongue" is his own selection, with the addition of the two late books which many regard as his finest work, "Pearl" and "The Book of Demons". Most of his poetry was out-of-print, and much had never been widely published.
Additional Notes
The title is his. The cover picture, he hunted down himself. Wolf Tongue is how he wanted to be known and remembered.
