Edizione: the first ediiton specially inscribed by seamus heaney and a masterful collection. field work was heaney's first collection of poetry to follow his much celebrated collection north in 1975. it can be seen as a record of his years living in rural county wicklow in the republic of ireland after leaving the violence of 'the troubles'. the collection contains some of his best-loved poems, such as ?oysters?, ?casualty?, ?the skunk?, and the defining sequence ?glanmore sonnets?. it has been cited by many ? including the poet?s wife, marie ? as their favorite volume.
