Riassunto

Errata is Michael Donaghy's eagerly awaited second book of poems. His first volume, Shibboleth (OUP, 1988) won both the Whitbread Poetry Category and the Geoffrey Faber Memorial Prize. In Errata he continues to explore the twin themes of love and error. 'O'Ryan's Belt', a sequence dedicated to forgotten musicians, charts the spiritual geography of oral traditions from rural Ireland to the slums of Athens, New York, and Chicago. This collection also features a number of meticulously wrought lyrics, as well as several bizarre narratives detailing, for instance, the revenge of a Renaissance metalsmith, the disgrace of an eleventh-century Japanese courtesan, and the disappearance of a Victorian admiral.
