A Chosen Light

3/5 ( ratings)

John Montague's new collection shows the capacity for growth and change, a characteristic of the true poet. To the clarity of his early work is added a direct sensuousness which is something of a new note in modern Irish poetry. But whether the background is his native Ulster, or the France where he now lives, the poems are united by a mature awareness of humanity and its condition. The volume outstandingly confirms Mr Montague's place in the front rank of contemporary poets.
