Prom Poet Alice Oswald on The Poetry Channel

To whet the appetite for Alice Oswald’s forthcoming Poetry Prom appearance in August, go directly to The Poetry Channel where we’ve just uploaded a podcast of her revelatory 2007 Aldeburgh Poetry Festival interview about ‘Poetry & Landscape’ with former Arvon Director, Ariane Koek.

Director of The Poetry Trust, Naomi Jaffa, recently had to listen (really listen!) to this interview from start to finish for transcription purposes. And she was completely hooked - “It was a marvellous conversation! The kind of Radio 3 or 4 programme you’d have to stay sitting in your car until the end of (if you’re interested in Alice’s work / her singular approach to writing poetry / our relationships with landscape).” So, do go download!
