Paul Muldoon: Laoithe is Lirici (A Life in Lyrics)

March 12 @ 7:00 pm - 9:00 pm

$13.50

This feature-length documentary film about the Pulitzer Prize-winning Irish writer and acclaimed poet Paul Muldoon creatively composes the story of Muldoon’s life through poems and performances of his song lyrics, while chronicling his beginnings as a radio producer with the BBC in Belfast to his position as Howard G.B. Clark ’21 University Professor in the Humanities, Director of the Princeton Atelier, and Professor of Creative Writing at Princeton University. Featuring Paul Simon, Liam Neeson, PJ Harvey, Bono, Ruth Negga, Paul Brady, and Iarla Ó Lionáird, among others, and using Muldoon’s own words, Laoithe is Lirici is an imaginative and innovative tribute to a great literary mind.

Following the film, Muldoon will be in attendance for an in-person Q&A.
