Paul Muldoon : critical essays

The essays in this book testify to the fascination of Paul Muldoon?s poems, and also to their underlying contentiousness. The contributors see Muldoon from many different angles ? biographical, formal, literary-historical, generic ? but also direct attention to complex moments of creativity in which an extraordinary amount of originality is concentrated, and on the clarity of which a lot depends. In their different ways, all of the essays return to the question of what a poem can ?tell? us, whether about its author, about itself, or about the world in which it comes into being.
