Karl-Otto Apel

Memory, love, history and ideas: Thomas McCarthy has a uniquely direct and engaged approach both to the private and the public, which are inseparable in his poetry. His special blend of wit and lyricism is shown to the full in this selection which draws on his five previous books and adds a large group of new poems. Thomas McCarthy was born in Co. Waterford in 1954 and educated at University College, Cork. He has published six collections of poetry, two novels and a memoir. He has won the Patrick Kavanagh Award, the American-Irish Foundation's Literary Award, and the O'Shaughnessy Prize for Poetry. He has worked for Cork City Libraries since 1987. He is a member of Aosdána.

`The Gardens of Remembrance' is a moving testimony to the power of memory, childhood, and poetry by one of Ireland's finest living poets. Drawing on the rich landscape of West Waterford, from its Anglo-Irish gardens to the hidden town lands of Fianna Fail activism and de Valera worship, McCarthy brilliantly captures the personal life behind his poems and politics, as well as his experiences teaching at the Iowa Writer's school and at Minnesota's Carleton College. McCarthy also provides an excellent overview of Irish poetry over the past two decades, including pithy assessments of such Northern poets as Heaney, Montague, and Longley, Southern writers from Austin Clarke to Eavan Boland, as well as the newest generation of Cork poets. The Gardens of Remembrance is an insightful and honest portrait of one man's life as an artist and his homeland's noteworthy place in world poetry today.
