Field Work. First edition. Inspired by Heaney's move to County Wicklow away from the Troubles in Belfast, Field Work deals "with themes of personal and political history, place, and the 'everyday miracles' that would be alluded to in the citation when Heaney won the Nobel Prize in Literature in 1995" (Seamus Heaney HomePlace). This volume was the Poetry Book Society Choice for Autumn 1979, and the society's leaflet is laid in.
