Opened ground, paperback/seamus heaney

An updated edition of Heaneys New Selected Poems 1966-1987, which has been expanded to include pieces from his two most recent collections; Seeing Things and the award-winning The Spirit Level - and which also includes new work, published here for the first time.

Since winning the Nobel Prize in 1995, Heaneys media profile has steadily grown, and both The School Bag (co-edited with Ted Hughes) and The Spirit Level have been bestsellers.
