Revised
edition of Michael Coady's acclaimed, and loved, compendium of
poetry, story, illustration and memoir.
'Like
a symphony . . . Few books like All Souls are being written these
days, but I would like to think that such a book could only have
come out of Ireland: it unites the demotic and the sophisticated;
it speaks through the mouths of people, and encompasses all kinds
of art . . . I have read it from cover to cover three times and dipped
into it on many other occasions.
I will read it again for its passion, its wit, its pathos, its reverence,
its irreverence, and the integrity of its many connections.'
— Ciaran Carson, Poetry Ireland Review
