Looking Through You: Northern Chronicles, the sequel to renowned Belfast poet and author Gerald Dawes critically acclaimed In Another World: Van Morrison and Belfast, is the evocative record of the musical, literary and artistic influences that inspired and forged Dawes awakening as a poet, and his career in Irish literature. Taking its bearings from Belfast in the 1960s, The Beatles Rubber Soul album and the energising shock of reading the great American poets Robert Lowell and Sylvia Plath, Dawes wry and engaging style has produced a telling record of the music, poetry and culture of growing up in the northern capital. Featuring the stunning photography of Euan G bler, this literary memoir is a must-have for fans of Dawes work, a superb introduction to his world for new readers, and, in his own words, may help renew Belfast and the ordinary life and lives of the city, and allow its people to overcome as best they can the seemingly irreconcilable and unsolvable conflicts of the past.About the AuthorGerald Dawe is a retired Professor of English and Fellow of Trinity College.
