“First published in 1988, Selected Poems: Rogha Danta by Nuala Ni Dhomhnaill, with translations by Michael Hartnett, played a major role in bridging the historical divide between Irish poets writing in Irish and those writing in English. At the same time these poems — drawn from folklore, dream and mythology, yet giving voice to an utterly new world — helped to copperfasten Nuala Ni Dhomhnaill’s reputation as one of Ireland’s foremost poets, irrespective of language or gender.
Reissued by New Island Books with a new Afterword by the author, Selected Poems: Rogha Danta remains a landmark text in Irish poetry publishing.”
English translations are given on the opposite pages to the Irish text.
