Hardback. Crua/Hardback 80 lch. Dánta fórsúla ó dhuine de na filí sin a chaith tréimhse in Ollscoil Chorcaí agus a thug aghaidh ar Chorca Dhuibhne. As sin thug sé Londain air féin. One of those poets who spent time in UCC and headed for the Dingle Peninsula. Then London called him. An almost manic force in the best of these poems.
