RTÉ Celebrates Seamus Heaney's Birthday

[cathedralmound]

Poor old Heaney, being lauded in this manner by a bunch of RTE entities must chill his blood. That Fianna Failer Tubridy even gets a plug in for Brian Cowen, shameless shilling for the party he is devoted to. Shocking.

@cathedralmound I know what you mean.

I suppose the difficult thing to do is to concede that the universality of Heaneys work means people of a completely different class can get something out of it.

I can't hear John Kelly's voice.

Field Work changed my life, but I have to admit that I don't understand the Redress of Poetry.
