borders crossed by poetry

register pt2

Simon Armitage takes us through the mysterious aisles of magic at Poundland:

There's a poem in this programme from Simon Armitage called, Poundland. It is quite simply - exquisite. http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b01r0b3n and - Simon Armitage once said someone bought a book of poems by Ezra Pound, in Poundland, for - a pound!

Borders Met and Crossed

AVAILABILITY

Adventures in strong language - performed and from the page - introduced by a master of poetic ceremonies, Paul Farley. Borders - met and crossed - are the theme of the day. The River Styx where the dead arrive and the shape-shifting places where people become other animals are among the subjects. Jo Shapcott, James Lasdun and Simon Armitage come to the edge and shout their poems across.
