Description
Though The King of Suburbia is his first collection of poems, Iggy McGovern is already a very well known name in Irish poetry, having published many of the witty, playful but always thoughtful poems in this book in magazines and journals. A physicist at Trinity College Dublin, McGovern brings a scientist's keen eye for observation to bear on a wide range of topics - from his childhood in Northern Ireland to contemporary Irish life and, in particular, family life in the Dublin suburbs
First published 2005.
