About
Following his acclaimed "Pandemonium," Thomas McCarthy's "Prophecy" dwells on childhood memory, romantic love and the varieties of human attachment. Still embodying his distinctive voice and craft, in these poems McCarthy risks more prophetic moods and themes. There are poems on illness and recovery, aging and creativity. From the community well of his childhood home in County Waterford to the holy well and pilgrim site of St. Gobnait's in County Cork, the poet finds that the act of remembering is an act of making and understanding.
