"The Street Poet Zozimus" is a biographical work by Michel Arnoux that chronicles the life and times of the renowned Dublin street poet Michael Moran (1794–1846), who was affectionately known as Zozimus. Moran, a blind balladeer, became an iconic figure in the folklore of Dublin, celebrated for his wit and his ability to capture the essence of the city's street life in his verses. Arnoux's work delves into the historical and cultural context of early 19th-century Dublin, providing readers with a vivid portrayal of the social conditions and the vibrant urban culture that shaped Zozimus's poetry.

The book offers a comprehensive examination of Zozimus's contributions to Irish literature and oral tradition, exploring the themes and styles prevalent in his work. Arnoux meticulously reconstructs the poet's life, from his humble beginnings to his rise as a beloved street performer, whose recitations and performances left an indelible mark on Dublin's literary heritage. "The Street Poet Zozimus" not only serves as a biography but also as a critical analysis of the poet's work, shedding light on the significance of street literature as a form of social commentary and a reflection of the common people's voice during that era.

Through extensive research, including examination of historical documents, contemporary accounts, and Zozimus's surviving poems, Arnoux pieces together the narrative of a figure who, despite his blindness and poverty, became a symbol of resilience and the enduring power of the spoken word. The book is an essential read for those interested in Irish history, folklore, and the role of street literature in shaping public consciousness and identity.
