Description:
One of the ‘truths’ about writers is that after a successful first book the agonies of the second devour both time and talent. For Daniel Sheehan that seems to have been turned on its head. Rather than go forward it was easier to look back, to dredge rather than furrow, gathering words, lines and phrases from the past and re-fashioning, distilling and evolving poems of simplicity, complexity, light and dark. Sometimes very dark.His work is often characterized by a modern, intimate, and somewhat mysterious style, focusing deeply on the emotional connection between lovers. He is also known as a "modern romantic." Unlike the classical poets who often used complex metaphors, Sheehan’s work is praised for its accessibility and sincerity. Author - Daniel Sheehan.
