The Echoing Years completes a trilogy of anthologies combining the poetry of Ireland and Newfoundland & Labrador. The Backyards of Heaven (2003) and However Blow the Winds (2004) have sold out. This new volume expands its coverage to poetry from across Canada, including French-Canadian (partly in translation) and Aboriginal work, published since 1980. It contains 172 poets, (87 Canadian, 85 Irish), and includes translations/versions of Dante, Virgil, and eastern European poets.

John Ennis, Head of the School of Humanities at the Waterford Institute of Technology in Ireland, chairs their Centre for Newfoundland and Labrador Studies. He has co-edited all three anthologies.

Stephanie McKenzie teaches English at Sir Wilfred Grenfell College in Corner Brook, and is the founder of Scop Productions Inc., a west coast Newfoundland publishing and production house.
