Overview

The latest collection from award-winning poet Sean O'Brien tackles England and its relationship with Europe - through their tangled history and into the uncertain future.Europa, Sean O'Brien's ninth collection of poems, is a timely and necessary book. Europe is not a place England can choose to leave: it is also a shared heritage and an age-old state of being, a place where common dreams, visions and nightmares recur and mutate. In placing present crises in the context of an imaginative past, O'Brien shows how England's future will be determined by what they choose to understand of their own European identity - as well as what they remember and forget of their shared history.A magisterial, grave and lyric work of from one of the finest poets of the age: Europa shows not just a Europe haunted by disaster and the threat of apocalypse, but an England where the shadows lengthen and multiply even in its most familiar and domestic corners. Europe, the poet reminds us, shapes the fate of everyone in these islands - even those of us who insist that they live elsewhere.
