Journeys into Light: New Art Poems

By Dr C A Buckley

This third book of poems by Dr Buckley, like the two previous collections, comes from a lifetime of dedicated writing of poetry. The first collection, The Last Irish Romantic, was launched by Gabriel Fitzmourice, the noted poet, at the Listowel literary festival. He described the collection as a striking series of works reminiscent of T. S Eliot and Michael Hartnett. The book was praised by the famous Dublin publisher and poet, Pat Boran, as a "truly distinctive debut volume", and the noted British poet Bernard O'Donoghue described it as "brilliant". Dr Buckley's second collection, Poems from Heartlands, was published recently. It was uniquely innovative in that it contained both printed poems of note, but also hand-written poems woven into distinctive art- work by the author, as in his original notebook sources. These encapsulate a lifetime of poetic and artistic work. The poet's second collection, the colour edition, received fulsome praise. It has been nominated for numerous awards, including the book of the year, and has won the Pinnacle Book Achievement award, the San Francisco Literary Festival award for Poetry; the Author's Circle award, the Titan book award and the Firebird book award. This Latest collection, Journeys into Light: New Art Poems, continues that brilliant innovative approach, what the poet calls "new art poetry". Read it and be blown away by the brilliant and unique poetic quality and striking related art- work by the author.
