A Map of British Poetry

BBC Radio 4
on BBC Radio 4 FM

7/12. Not England. Much of British poetry is made up of poems that are nourished by a landscape that is decidedly not England. How have these places come into our poetry and what have they brought? Andrew Motion continues his exploration of the landscapes of British poetry, with contributions from Neal Ascherson and Joyce Macmillan and poems by Gwyneth Lewis. Linton Kwesi Johnson , Dylan Thomas , Nuala Nf Dhomhnaill and Robert Burns. Repeated from Sunday
