In addition to being much in demand as a reader and lecturer, he occasionally appears with a spoken word music group, ‘Rogue Oliphant’.
In addition to the Pulitzer Prize, he has received an American Academy of Arts and Letters award in literature, the 1994 T. S.

The Times Literary Supplement describes Paul as being “the most significant English-language poet born since the second World War.”
Roger Rosenblatt, describes Paul Muldoon in the New York Times Book Review as being “one of the great poets of the past hundred years, who can be everything in his poems – word-playful, lyrical, hilarious, melancholy. And angry. Only Yeats before him could write with such measured fury.”
