SHORTLISTED FOR THE POETRY PIGOTT PRIZE IN ASSOCIATION WITH LISTOWEL WRITERS´ WEEKThe hard-hitting new poetry collection from ´Ireland´s most ingenious poet´ ( Telegraph ).´Very few poets, living or otherwise, can combine high-speed wit, tongue-twisting alliteration and dizzying rhyme with the kind of insight that makes us pause, laugh, remember; feel envious, out of breath, punch-drunk.´ Kit Fan, GuardianA ´howdie-skelp´ is the slap in the face a midwife gives a newborn. It´s a wake-up call. A call to action. The poems in Paul Muldoon´s striking new collection include a nightmarish remake of The Waste Land , an elegy for his fellow Northern Irish poet Ciaran Carson, a crown of sonnets that responds to the early days of the Covid-19 pandemic, a translation from the ninth-century Irish, and a Yeatsian sequence of ekphrastic poems that call into question the very idea of an ´affront´ to good taste. Paul Muldoon is a poet who continues not only to capture, but to hold our attention.
