We just sit tight while wind dives And strafes invisibly. As we enter the blustering winter months, join us at Seamus Heaney: Listen Now Again on Saturday 14th November for a talk exploring the effect Ireland’s stormy weather has had on Seamus Heaney's poetry. From frightening squalls in Storm on an Island , to invigorating gusts providing poetic inspiration in Postscript , and gentle breezes of ' Had I Not Been Awake ,' we shall see how various winds have stirred his imagination to give us some of his most beloved poems across his whole career.
