On Yeats: Upon a House

W. B. Yeats's short poem 'Upon a House Shaken by the Land Agitation' may be only a minor work in the Yeats canon, but, in an unusually challenging exercise in literary criticism, it is here taken seriously as posing uncomfortable moral and political questions, not simply in Yeats's Ireland but to any reader of the poem today, as its own questions are placed within a gradually widening context of national developments and global issues.

Praise for Sharratt's previous work:
.. an absolutely important first-rate book -Terry Eagleton
.. I am Honoured by Sharratt's attention - Seamus Heaney
.. fascinating, entertaining, . . very impressive-David Lodge
.. the most richly-packed book by an English critic in recent years-Nicholas Tredell
.. astonishing, powerful, playful, brilliantly clever and attractive-Fred Inglis
