This wonderful book contains James Stephens's 1909 collection of poetry, Insurrections. Stephens's first book of poems will appeal to a wide range of poetry-lovers, and is not to be missed by fans and collectors of his wonderful work. James Stephens (1880 - 1950) was an Irish novelist and poet who is famous for his many humorous retellings of Irish myths and fairy tales. The poems contained herein include: "The Dancer", "The Street Behind Yours", "Nature", "What Tomas and Buile said in a Pub", "Chill of the Eve", "The Whisperer", "The Red-Haired Man's Wife", "The Tale of Mad Brigid", "Hate", "The Watcher", "The Seeker", and more.
