2 2 See Thomas McCarthy (2015, 520–521) for an account of the importance of receiving the Patrick Kavanagh Award. However, McCarthy arrives at the following summation:One's personal poetry, the fruit of one's temperament, is an unassailable realm. Its success or failure has hardly anything to do with anyone else in the deepest sense. There is, of course, the post facto politics of published texts, the world of reviews and awards, yet this world is but a distant rumb e of thunder barely audible in the realm where poems get written. So often one meets very new poets who are obsessed with the “politics” of poetry and its trivia: they make the heart sink because you feel that they may never arrive at that point of repose where their deepest work will get written. The place where poems get made is much quieter than the place of fame.(526)
