Ave atque vale, Seamus Heaney
#3
I did not read much of his writing. I was put off, when helping my youngest do his 'A' levels. If he had something to say, I asked my Philistine self, why the screaming bejesus could he not say it? Yet it is sad to see a major name pass, a champion of poetry in general.

No-one here in the UK seems to have that star quality,, but perhaps others will fill the gap. I would like to put a few quid on John Hegley, but that is because he's the Dad of my grand-daughter's chum, and she read his annotated copy of 'Catcher' while swanning around Europe. Any suggestions for successor-in-business?
