I am honoured and delighted to have taken part in the BBC Radio 4 programme Artworks celebrating 40 years of Poems on the Underground.
You can listen to the episode here.
With thanks to producer Mair Bosworth for inviting me to talk about my encounter with Carol Ann Duffy’s ‘Words, Wide Night’ somewhere between Swiss Cottage and St John’s Wood.
Happy new year!

Lifesaving Poems 
I keep getting 404 errors with the ‘listen to’ links. The only one I could get to was the one for Carrl Ann Duffy, but then within that the link to listen to her poem also throws a 404 error.
