{"product_id":"finders-keepers-3","title":"Finders Keepers","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eFinders Keepers\u003c\/b\u003e is a gathering of Seamus Heaney''s prose of three decades. Whether autobiographical, topical or specifically literary, these essays and lectures circle the central preoccupying questions: How should a poet properly live and write? What is his relationship to be to his own voice, his own place, his literary heritage and the contemporary world?\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAs well as being a selection from the poet''s three previous collections of prose (\u003cb\u003ePreoccupations\u003c\/b\u003e, \u003cb\u003eThe Government of the Tongue\u003c\/b\u003e and \u003cb\u003eThe Redress of Poetry\u003c\/b\u003e), the present volume includes material from ''The Place of Writing'', a series of lectures delivered at Emory University in 1988. Also included are a rich variety of pieces not previously collected in volume form, ranging from short newspaper articles to more extended lectures and contributions to books. In its soundings of a wide range of poets - Irish and British, American and East European, predecessors and contemporaries - \u003cb\u003eFinders Keepers\u003c\/b\u003e is, as its title indicates, ''an announcement of both excitement and possession''.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"MediaPlace","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57310968807806,"sku":"NW9780571210916","price":15.29,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0817\/1379\/1261\/files\/9780571210916.jpg?v=1778695620","url":"https:\/\/mediaplace.com\/products\/finders-keepers-3","provider":"MediaPlace","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
