    • Selected Poems / Vybrané básně. Dvojjazyčný výbor z díla předního irského básníka. Básně Bernarda O’Donoghua (* 1945), jsou balady nebo jejich torza působící jako „archeologické nálezy.“ Reflexe smutku nad nemožností vřelého kontaktu, nad láskou, kterou nedokážeme naplnit nebo sdílet. O’Donoghue, povoláním profesor středověké literatury, si je vědom, že ubohé a tajemné Irsko jeho dětství už neexistuje. Krajina jeho poezie je fikcí, přesto ji dokážeme sdílet jako vlastní domov. Tereza Brdečková vybrala pro tento anglicko-český výbor čtyřicet básní z posledních šesti O’Donoghuových sbírek.
