The title of the poem from this collection is set on an island that has been a pilgrimage site in Ireland for over a thousand years. It is a narrative sequence, an autobiographical quest concerning "the growth of a poet's mind." The long poem is preceded by a section with shorter lyrical compositions and leads to a third group of poems where the poet's voice becomes identified with that of the legendary mad King Sweeney. 'It surpasses even what one might reasonably expect from this supremely gifted poet.' John Carey, Sunday Times
