註釋

Derek Mahon called John Montague 'the best Irish poet of his generation'. He commanded a pivotal place in contemporary Iris poetry: a vital link between the generation of Patrick Kavanagh and younger poets like Heaney, Mahon and Muldoon, whose style and internationalism owe much to his example. New Selected Poems is a sampler of poems from the eight collections he had published by 1990. It includes much of his best-known work, from the seminal poem 'Like Dolmens round my childhood, the Old People' and lyrics such as 'Herbert Street Revisited' to the magisterial meditation 'The Hill of Silence'. The book reveals one of the most prophetic, generous and moving voices of our time.
