Tom Paulin est un poète, critique et dramaturge dont les premières œuvres abordent souvent la situation politique et la violence sectaire en Irlande du Nord. Sa poésie est reconnue pour son examen incisif des identités culturelles et des problèmes sociétaux, explorant fréquemment de manière provocatrice les États-nations et leur impact sur la littérature. L'écriture de Paulin se caractérise par sa profondeur intellectuelle, sa précision linguistique et une volonté inébranlable de découvrir l'interaction complexe entre politique, histoire et art. Sa production ultérieure s'étend à des projets épiques et des traductions, démontrant son intérêt durable pour la formation des canons littéraires et de la tradition poétique.

An outstanding collection of poems by Tom Paulin, one of Britain's most original poets and literary critics "o chitterin chatterin platinum licht the bow shall be in the clouds and I will look upon it to remember the everlasting testament between God and all that liveth upon earth whatsoever flesh or faith it be --they may have turned Tyndale into tinder but the bow he wrought lives high in this wet blue sky" --from "The Wind Dog" In the north of Ireland, a "wind dog" is a fragment of a rainbow, and in the title poem of this collection, it provides Tom Paulin with a perfect bridge into childhood and its "lingo-jingo of beginnings." The poem is a singing meditation on the life of the ear--"the only true reader"--and the meaning and music of both words and preverbal sounds are a recurring theme in this rich, cogent, and adventurous volume.
The Secret Life of Poems is a primer which offers a poem - or on occasion an excerpt - succeeding with commentary in which rhythm, form, metre and sources are the order of the day, not ethical commentary or descriptive paraphrase.
