"[A] storm of slaps against piety, prudery, cruelty and greed . . . Like Eliot, Muldoon's after big, apocalyptic vision; unlike Eliot, Muldoon is willing--no, compelled--to clown . . . Like many important poets before him, from John Milton to Tim Rice, Muldoon knows that sinners and villains are more interesting, maybe more human, than self-appointed good guys. Poems, for Muldoon, are occasions to plumb the language for a truth that's abysmal: as in appalling, and as in deep." --Daisy Fried, The New York Times Book Review "Truly, is there any living poet with as skilled and rambunctious an ear as Paul Muldoon? . . . One of the pleasures of Muldoon's poems is the way they make reality seem to go right to the verge of surrealism, the very shaky lip of it. How does he do it?" --Jesse Nathan, McSweeney's " Howdie-Skelp . . . offers the kind of slap that great poetry from the likes of William Butler Yeats or Seamus Heaney can produce, the kind of poetry that can make a reader wince with delight." --Michael Pearson, The New York Journal of Books "When considering a poet as protean as Muldoon, analogies fail . . . Muldoon's poetry remains unremittingly consequential." -- Booklist, Named a Best Book of the Year by Financial Times "[A] storm of slaps against piety, prudery, cruelty and greed . . .

Synopsis
The Pulitzer Prize-winning poet delivers a sharp wake-up call with his fourteenth collection. A "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 Howdie-Skelp , Paul Muldoon's new collection, include a nightmarish remake of The Waste Land , an elegy for his fellow Northern Irish poet Ciaran Carson, a heroic 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. Muldoon is a poet who continues not only to capture but to command our attention.

- 5***5 (82)- Bewertung vom Käufer.Letzter MonatBestätigter Kaufpretty much as described…it’s not 100% perfect some minor scuffs on the plastic/sleeve but nothing that will make me leave a negative review… the seller has great communication, I was out of town. I asked if he could wait a day before sending off he did I received it. Transaction complete I would buy again and I’m probably going to buy from him in the near future. I rather buy from a seller-with the item I’m looking for that cost $1-$2 more than other sellers, but is reliable
