  • Resumen

  • Roy McFarlane talks to host Jo Bell about his journey to poetry, his faith and his new collection, Living By Troubled Waters. Sound quality is not great on this one because we had to do it by Zoom, but the words are still worth hearing.


    Poems and poets Roy mentions during our conversation are:


    John McCullough, Natalie Diaz and Mary Jean Chan - and the poems he reads are Langston Hughes' The Negro Speaks of Rivers and Nikki Giovanni's Mothers, plus Roy's own poem from the new collection, To The Heron Who Stood With Me In The Ruins of Another Black Man's Life.


    The Poetic Licence is a subscription that brings together hundreds of poetry writers in a global community. Every month there is a detailed prompt that stimulates you to write in new ways, on new subjects, and includes lots of new reading. You also get discounts on some workshops and publications, a chance to win giveaways like new poetry collections, and the chance to ask the question which we will direct to the next interviewee.

    Next month we speak to poet and visual artist Sophie Herxheimer in her London home.
