Quick Overview

A selection of Ulster-Scots poetry by James Fenton

Product Description

JAMES FENTON, born in 1931, grew up in the adjoining townlands of Drumadarragh and Ballinaloob. Educated at Stranmillis College and Queen's University, he spent his working life as a teacher and principal in Belfast, and now lives in Glengormley. He is the author of The Hamely Tongue (1995; new editions, 2000, 2007).

The Hamely Tongue gave us a comprehensive record of contemporary
Ulster-Scots; now, in the poems and prose of On Slaimish, the writer's native language comes vividly alive. From this vantage point he stands, and takes his stand, 'On the hoovin hairt o Antrim'.
