These are manly poems: reports from the seat of a motorcycle, or by the needle of a record player. And then something slightly different, The Idea of Trust.

I consider the discomfiting reality of poetry grounded in interiority, and - in the company of Philip Larkin - why a bit of cynicism can be a good thing.The Poetry of Philip Larkin from the British Library: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3z_i2dhnda4Monitor Books: https://www.monitorbooks.co.uk/books Hosted on Acast.

So why do I use the word 'caricature' to disparage? I talk about The Point of Poetry by Joe Nutt (2019, Unbound) and Uproar!

That most powerful of light sources, the Sun, can be a symbol of warmth and hope, but it is also pervasive. In the natural world, it can be oppressive, even threatening. I take a look at how artists have treated the sun - and reveal some unexpected ambiguities. Artists discussed include the Beatles, JMW Turner, René Magritte and Joan Miró.This episode was recorded in London, England by Susan Gordon.
