Description
Paul Muldoon's fifth collection of poems explores the complexities of human experience through unexpected and thought-provoking observations. From the first recorded case of germ warfare to a meditation on a simple bar of soap, these poems delve into the intricacies of life. The collection also features a sequence of monologues spoken by individuals from '7, Middagh Street', New York, on Thanksgiving Day 1940. These voices offer a unique perspective on the human condition, adding depth and nuance to Muldoon's characteristic style. With its diverse range of themes and styles, this collection showcases Muldoon's mastery of language and his ability to find meaning in the everyday.
