Poems, with paintings and drawings by Bernadette Kiely.

Limited edition of 500 numbered, clothbound copies, of which 450 are for sale.

Signed by the author. Special Limited Edition Ten new poems — one of Derek Mahon’s ‘interim’ collections — conjure the world of Coleridge’s life, Brian Moore’s Belfast and the plays of Ibsen and Chekhov.

They range from Italy to Goa to the American South. With the formal art of a master, they are sure to delight the author’s admirers. This handsome edition features pencil drawings and full colour reproductions of watercolours by Bernadette Kiely specially created in response to this new work. Printed on Rives Artist and hardbound in linen with blind embossed title and in a Pergamenata wraparound. Somewhere the Wave is the second title in a new series. The first, The Riverbank Field by Seamus Heaney (and Martin Gale), was oversubscribed on publication.
