Strap on your best boots, and follow Martin Malone as he shoulders through the seasons on the rugged granite of Aberdeenshire's north sea coast, pondering nature, ecology, human resilience and frailty in his collection Gardenstown, from Broken Sleep Books , a beautiful collaboration with artist Bryan Angus. And we'll loiter in an English outfield hoping to catch poems from his Selected Poems 2005-2020, Larksong Static from Hedgehog Press about the First World War and a lonely bar in Manhattan.
Meanwhile Robin and Peter continue to answer the questions poetry lovers demand to have answered: do poetry pamphlets always have to be invertebrates? And, isn't it time to be a bit less sniffy about Dylan Thomas? We'll also read a delightful poem Please Can I Have a Man from Selima Hill.
Planet Poetry is a labour of love!
