About this item
Acclaimed as a major break-through in Irish publishing when first released, The Bright Wave: An Tonn Gheal was the first anthology of modern Irish language poetry in translation. This dual language volume focuses on the generation of writers who emerged over the past two decades to broaden and strengthen not only verse in the Irish language but poetry as it is written today. These writers embraced, through their work, not only their Gaelic heritage, but all aspects of modern life. This has served not to destroy the tradition of Irish language poetry but to make it a living and vibrant discourse again.
