Of the 113 poets McBreen catalogues, more than half published their first collections in the 1990s.

The first lady of Irish letters, Eavan Boland, joins Mary Dorcey, Medbh McGuckian, Iris Murdoch, and scores of others better known in their homeland than in America. Just one poem by each poet appears, which leaves the reader wanting more, but extensive biographic and bibliographic annotation compensate somewhat.

Fittingly, Christopher Murray, a colleague from UCD, where Harmon taught poetry for decades, reminded the throng that we were also celebrating the talents of a man still very much in harness.
