en-wikipedia-org-1407		Paul Muldoon - Wikipedia			.html	text/html	3936	526	76	In 1969, Muldoon read English at Queen's University Belfast, where he met Seamus Heaney and became close to the Belfast Group of poets which included Michael Longley, Ciarán Carson, Medbh McGuckian and Frank Ormsby. His poetry is known for his difficult, sly, allusive style, casual use of obscure or archaic words, understated wit, punning, and deft technique in meter and slant rhyme.[9] As Peter Davidson says in The New York Times review of books "Muldoon takes some honest-to-God reading. In the book Irish Poetry since 1950, John Goodby states it is "by common consent, the most complex poem in modern Irish literature [...] – a massively ambitious, a historiographical metafiction".[11] The post-modern poem narrates, in 233 sections (the same number as the number of Native American tribes), an alternative history in which Samuel Taylor Coleridge and Robert Southey come to America to found a utopian community. Muldoon has also edited a number of anthologies, written two children's books, translated the work of other authors, performed live at the Poetry Brothel.[16] and published critical prose.	./cache/en-wikipedia-org-1407.html	./txt/en-wikipedia-org-1407.txt
