Roger McGough introduces a selection of mainly American poetry, read by Jennifer Jellicorse and Kerry Shale.

Roger McGough introduces poems from 'across the pond'. There's a bus ride in Nova Scotia and a few trips to the cinema, with works by Elizabeth Bishop, Frank O'Hara and Billy Collins. For good measure, there's also a Swedish poem about growing up and a very English poem with a host of bluebells. The readers are Jennifer Jellicorse and Kerry Shale.
