Cork is a new, revised edition of a book first published in 1977. In it, a sequence of poems about her native city by one of the finest living writers articulates what is silently revealed in a visual portrait of Ireland's Southern 'capital', its main streets, alleyways, churches, river scenes and quaysides.
As most of these exquisitely detailed drawings were completed half a centuy ago, often as the wrecking balls approached the buildings and streets they record, there is inevitably and element of remembrance, even of commemmoration, of a world that is all but lost to us now.
Displaying the skills of two exceptional artists, Cork is an enduring act of harmony and evocation.
