Paul Farley is now widely recognized as one of the leading English
poets writing today. As usual it is impossible to summarize in
terms of theme, as his interests are too various: there's an air of
'the innocence of childhood' being viewed through the corrective
lens of worldly middle age, though, and also of mid-life, its
creeping self-consciousness and decrepitude, and the distortions of
perception that attend it; confusing encounters with tech,
modernity and its accelerated rate of change; satirical excursions
critiquing the way business and digital communications have debased
language. Farley is also interested as ever in the peripheral and
marginal and no-man's-lands - the lives of others, and their
strange occupations; the birds and unsung-by-the-pocket-guides
fauna and flora you miss. The Mizzy encapsulates one of poetry's
most capacious and eclectic imaginations.
