Poetry Club Talks…Seamus Heaney Part 3
Mike puts on the host hat in this third discussion on Seamus Heaney’s poetry, using the book “Seamus Heaney” by Helen Vendler as a guide. The poem this time is “St. Kevin and the Blackbird”. Heaney documents the folklore of a monk with intense control over body and mind that he held out his arm and opened his hand to be used as a tree branch for a nesting blackbird.
