Perfection

The work of one of the greatest poets of the English language, read by the author, who happens to be also one of the great performers and teachers of poetry. I've listened to all three volumes multiple times. This is an experience rightly to be envied, one that has elevated my life and will mark it forever.

His reflections run wide, deep, and True.

Listening to his response to Little Things, Old Friends, Places or Nature’s Simple Wonders the Reader knows that he’s hearing the thoughts and feelings that arise from deep inside Heaney’s Mind and Heart. His words resonate with the sound of Truth.
