More about the book
The narrative explores the complex relationship between Louis MacNeice and his father, a Church of Ireland clergyman who embodied a blend of piety and tolerance. Rejecting the Ulster Covenant and denouncing sectarianism, he embraced Irish nationalism, providing a stabilizing influence amidst the darker themes in MacNeice's poetry. The book stems from the revelation of a surprising detail that sheds light on their dynamic and the father's significant impact on the poet's work and worldview.
