Portrait of the Artist as an Abominable Snowman
Gabriel Rosenstock, Domhan Books
A dual Irish/English edition.
"There is an exoticism and excitement in the work of Gabriel Rosenstock that will send you looking for the recurring voice in his work...His is a world of jump-up pantomimes, babbly jesters, pigmies, and sentimental lovers all play actors one has to be prepared to live with. The play is sometimes sad-making, but there is energy and spontaneity in the world of his poetry.... There is an accessible power in these lyrics which can translate the reader to any number of creatures and places, and they are all worth the visit". Irish Literary Supplement.

ABOUT THE BOOK
From The Publisher, Hippocrene Books
Together these poems mingle the famous, the infamous, and the unknown into a beautiful and striking anthology. Fraught simultaneously with both violence and love, this work spans four centuries of romance, up-to and including the most modern of poets such as Sara Berkeley and 1995 Nobel Prize winner Seamus Heaney. It includes romantic favorites, passionate nationalists, Celtic heroes, and modern revivalists. For some of these authors, it is their first appearance in a U.S. anthology. This welcome collection captures the passion of being Irish and in love, be it the love of a woman or man, country or countryside, or the love of a freedom which seems perpetually elusive.
