The Times Literary Supplement has called Paul Muldoon "the most significant English-language poet born since the Second World War." The Toronto Star says, "No poet is as wicked, as stylish, or as fun." Muldoon was born, raised, and educated in Northern Ireland, and he has lived in the United States for the past two decades. He is currently a professor at Princeton, and last year he was appointed poetry editor of the New Yorker. He has won 10 major awards, including a Pulitzer Prize for poetry in 2003, and he is the author of 38 books, most recently "Horse Latitudes" and a collection of his Oxford lectures entitled "The End of the Poem."
