In addition to writing excellent verse, the Irish poet Louis MacNeice (1907-1963) also wrote lively prose and many pioneering plays for the BBC. This annotated collection includes fifty-one articles of previously neglected topical prose from 1929 to 1963, numerous articles and reviews, several chapters of early books long out of print, and a handful of previously unpublished autobiographical and travel documents on the Blitz, his favorite sport rugby, and philosophy. Heuser also includes an introduction, notes, and a full corrected bibliography of MacNeice's short prose.
