In this collection of critical responses to Nobel Prize winner Seamus Heaney's poetry, Elmer Andrews presents the debates surrounding the poet's work and popular appeal.

Beginning with Heaney's early collection, "Death of a Naturalist," the guide reviews and contextualizes material on successive volumes (including 1996's "The Spirit Level"), so that students of Heaney's verse will find an accessible pathway through the most important critical writings on this major poet.
