The Stubble Fields

by Patrick Moran

This is a first collection by a poet living in rural Ireland whose themes move from the awareness of landscape and its relationship to those living close to nature, to the difficulties of living in a time when natural values seem threatened, to the redemptive power of art. Patrick Moran's work echoes Patrick Kavanagh's but with new twists and slants that are attractive, accessible, and challenging. The most appealing aspect of his work is the exploration of dreams and their residues.
