Song of the Goldfinch is a beautifully written faith memoir tracing John F. Deane's time as a strict Roman Catholic on Achill Island to his faith as it stands at present. This memoir is a vivid journey through his time spent as a novice and seminarian, through discovery of alternative Christian approaches, all of it in prose form, but linked by poems, both published and unpublished. The book offers insights and experiences that are unique to him as an individual and published poet, and yet wholly relevant to Christian faith in our difficult times. AUTHOR: John F. Deane is a writer and poet. He has had eight collections of poetry published in Manchester by Carcanet, including Naming of the Bones (2021). He spent five years as a Holy Ghost novice and seminarian; studied poetry and faith and has published several books of essays on poets of faith, such as Hopkins, Herbert, Heaney and Kinsella. He is the founder of Poetry Ireland and Dedalus Press. He has taught poetry and faith in Boston College as Burns scholar and in Loyola University, Chicago, as Teilhard de Chardin visiting scholar.
