Among Muldoon&#8217;s nine collections of poetry are <em>Selected Poems 1968-83 <\/em>(Faber and Faber, 1986), <em>Madoc: A Mystery <\/em>(Faber and Faber, 1990), <em>The Annals of Chile (<\/em>Faber and Faber, 1994) and <em>Hay<\/em> (Faber and Faber, 1998).<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Muldoon&#8217;s genius resides in his visionary, frankly hallucinatory ability to bundle disparate chunks of time &#8212; imaginings as well as memories &#8212; into a continuous present. Once these poems have made their way into our minds, they open and open and open,&#8221; wrote Geoffrey Stokes in the Village Voice.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Poet Paul Muldoon will read from his works at Bates College March 18 at 8 p.m. in Chase Hall Lounge.
