Gold Set Dancing

Meer over het boek

James Liddy's writing defies labeling. It combines American and Irish-American contexts and possesses states of history, and states of love, which are not often represented in contemporary poetry. Liddy's poems speak with an intimate voice and a cajoling sense of intrigue. 'Gold Set Dancing' is divided into three the first contains poems with Irish themes; the second section consists of prose poems celebrating the lives of the poet's grandparents; and the final section features the American Midwest and the city of Milwaukee.
