WINNER OF THE INAUGURAL T.S.ELIOT PRIZE — BEST COLLECTION OF NEW POETRY PUBLISHED IN 1993. Glyn Maxwell in Fortnight, said, 'The outer shell of Carson's work in First Language, shimmering, wayward, fanciful, masks his clear and sober purpose, to revivify in a world of cant, to repaint a spectrum across a sky of two colours.' Gerald Dawe of The Irish Times, wrote that, 'Ciaran Carson's First Language is a spectacular collection . . . If you buy only one poetry book . . . this year, make sure it's this one'. |
