Poems Selected by Seamus Heaney by W.B. Yeats

5.0

This was one of the best collections I have ever read. Yeats’ poems are absolutely groundbreaking, they are modern and anchored in their time but manage to keep the ethereal style of romantic poets. My favorites were The Stolen Child, an anthem of romanticism and escapism, and To Ireland in the Coming Times which was a beautiful homage to the country’s culture. I also loved the concept of this series, it was very interesting to discover Yeats through the lens of another great Irish poet.
