Human Chain. London: Faber & Faber, 2010. First Edition, Limited Issue. Quarter cloth, paper boards. A fine bright copy housed in publisher’s slipcase.

The twelfth and final poetry collection by Irish Nobel laureate Seamus Heaney.

Winner of the 2010 Forward Poetry Prize, the 2011 Irish Times Poetry Now Award, and the 2011 Griffin Poetry Prize, this remarkable work showcases Heaney at his most distilled and reflective.

“With hard-won clarity, Heaney renders memory in crystalline precision, contemplating the weight and wonder of a lifetime.” — Heather Clark, Harvard Review
