La prefazione illumina sulle intenzioni dell'autore e sul significato dell’opera: «Crescano e fioriscano intorno all’antica tomba della mia giovane madre myricae autunnali […] Mettano queste poesie i loro rosei calicetti intorno alla memoria di mia madre, di mia madre che fu così umile, e pur così forte, sebbene al dolore non sapesse resistere se non più di un anno. Io sento che a lei devo la mia abitudine contemplativa cioè, qual ch’ella sia, la mia attitudine poetica.

"Ey millet, birçok şeyler verdiniz, büyük sıkıntılara katlandınız, ama dostun düşmanın hayran olduğu bir sırça köşk elde ettiniz. Onun azameti, onun parlaklığı yanında üç beş çuval ekin, dört beş davar nedir ki?.. Biz sizin şanınız, şerefiniz için çalışıyoruz, sizin iyiliğinizden başka bir şey düşünmüyoruz.

Travelling into my final years on this wonderful planet of ours, that question can arise more than twice a day. Observing England, Wales, Scotland and again Mallorca during my newfound freedom reveals the mores, habits, contradictions and petty annoyances of the 2020s.

The poems in this small volume are often short, humorous, and reckless, like many of the poems by this author in Persian. Like this one: Who knows? / Maybe we have someone like Gandhi, / But he has not yet returned from Africa. It is not possible to comment definitively on the genre or atmosphere of the poems, but most of them wander between romantic-erotic and sociopolitical. A recent category without indigenous signs is heavily influenced by the historical confidence of the totalitarian and repressive rulers of Iran.

Vinegar Hill explores the liminal space between private experiences and public events as Tóibín examines a wide range of subjects—politics, queer love, reflections on literary and artistic greats, living through COVID, memory and a fading past, and facing mortality.

The Late Sun asserts a balance between memorialisation of the recently dead and celebration of the vitality of the living.
