“To describe Paul Muldoon’s influence on contemporary poetry is like trying to assess the influence of The Beatles on post-war music: it’s to be seen and heard in the work of almost every British and Irish poet since the 1970’s” – The Irish Post

Born in County Armagh in 1951, the internationally renowned poet, Paul Muldoon, now lives in New York. He is the author of fourteen collections of poetry including Howdie-Skelp, published by FSG and Faber and Faber in 2021 and has taught at Princeton University for thirty-five years.

Among his many awards are the 2003 Pulitzer Prize, the 2006 European Prize for Poetry, the 2017 Queens Gold Medal for Poetry, and the 2020 Michael Marks Award. Also and editor, critic, playwright, lyricist and translator, he is a Fellow of the Royal Society for Literature and a Fellow of the American Academy of Arts and Letters.

Described by The Times Literary Supplement as ‘the most significant English-language poet born since the second World War’, join us for this very special event.
