Summary: Awesome Irish Love Poems
Comment: Norman Jeffares is a veteran who has written extensively on Irish writers and literary scene. He has lectured in Trinity College, Dublin and written and edited the works of Irish master writers such as Joyce, Yeats and Swift. In this book, he is sharing an awesome collection of 'Irish Love Poems' with those who are not very familiar with the subject.

'Love poetry' is a good catch-all to include the variety of themes associated with love. Here Jeffares includes poems dealing with love, flirtation, devotion, frustration, jealousy, marriage, celebration, pleasure, parting and many other themes associated with love. The poets who have contributed to this volume include Swift, Goldsmith, Yeats, Beckett, Wilde, Synge as well as the love poems written by Nobel Laureate Seamus Heaney. Jeffares has carefully selected a sample of the young generation of emerging Irish poets as well. The anthology also includes the works of several anonymous Irish poets. I enjoyed some of the poems written by several anonymous poets. My favourite collection includes poems such as 'Pulse of My Heart', 'The Girl I Love', and 'My Hope, My Love' and 'Love is a Mortal Disease'. All the poems in this anthology are neatly placed into categories such as "Intimations, "Flirtation and 'Courtship', 'Prase and Devotion', 'Youth, Age and Memory' and many more!

You can just turn the book and compare your joy or frustration on any emotion concerning love with a group of known and unknown Irish poets who have contributed to this marvellous collection.

Anyone who has either enjoyed the luxury of love or any other emotions (including pain!) attached to it must read this book.

This collection of Irish love poem is a gift to the world.
