Paul Muldoon: Maggot

Oct 14, 2010

Irish poet Paul Muldoon returns to the Poetry Center to read from Maggot, his new collection. "Maggot, like all Mr. Muldoon's work, is packed with gnarled and unfamiliar terms... [his] verse works high and low," wrote The New York Times. "The poems in Maggot play over a wide variety of human experience, but sex and death are the subjects that repeatedly cut its surface like twin dorsal fins."
