Longley on the poetry of Murphy

Sir, – One of the recent pleasures in my life is having The Irish Times delivered at 7am, four times per week. My husband had been getting the paper online – I must be old fashioned as I prefer the hard copy and the way one can flick through the various sections and return to the more interesting parts at various times during the day. I thoroughly enjoyed reading Micheal Longley on the poetry of Richard Murphy (Weekend Review, August 17th). – Yours, etc,
