| Summary: | A tribute to one of Ireland's great literary talents, Distant Summers is a collection of prose and poetry by writers, friends, and family members of Philip Casey (1950-2018). Over sixty contributors praise Casey's gifts as a poet and novelist as well as highlighting their admiration for him as an individual. Casey started out as a poet in his native County Wexford where his earliest work was published by James Liddy in the Gorey Arts Centre broadsheets. He went on to publish a suite of novels known as the Bann River Trilogy--The Fabulists, The Water Star, and The Fisher Child. In addition to a selection of Casey's work, Distant Summers includes a detailed bibliography of his publications and unpublished prose. |
