description: Nearly one-half of the poems by the popular Irish poet Patrick Kavanagh (1904-67) have religious themes, images, or allusions. Here Fr. Tom Stack has collected all of these 138 poems and includes extensive introductions and commentaries about them. ""Kavanagh himself said that poetry was a mystical thing, and Stack's reading of the poems amplifies and illumines that claim.""-Seamus Heaney.
