Poems, 1965-1975 collects a decade of verse from Seamus Heaney, winner of the Nobel Prize in Literature and the "most important Irish poet since Yeats" (Robert Lowell).

This volume gathers nearly all of the poems from Heaney's first four collections: Death of a Naturalist (1966), Door into the Dark (1969), Wintering Out (1972), and North (1975).
