In Ireland, he squares up to a rabble of indolently imperious sheep, those 'ragged kings and queens' of a sequence of poems called Achill Soundings, all written in a cottage once owned by the Nobel-Prize-winning German novelist Heinrich Böll. In Dear Bill, a sequence part written in Andalucia, he pays homage to New Jersey poet and paediatrician William Carlos Williams. In other sequences, he makes word-shapes from the odd minimalist music of the 20th century Austrian composer Anton Webern, explores the testy to-ings and fro-ings of human relationships in poems addressed to the mysterious Violet, and pays sombre tribute to a girl who died far, far too young.\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 214\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.58 x 9.21 x 6.14 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e November 17, 2025\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48538298548473,"sku":"9781915045508","price":26.48,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0789\/2782\/3097\/files\/SPQ9BwbyjV9781915045508.webp?v=1781648806","url":"https:\/\/bookscloud.io\/products\/thirst-a-collection-of-poetry-paperback","provider":"BooksCloud Book Dropshipping","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
