In February I was asked to produce a podcast for an event by the Dead Women Poets Society at Norwich Forum. Each event or séance features women poets resurrecting a woman poet who did not receive the recognition she deserved. The living poets talk about the poet's life and accomplishments, share their work and talk about how they influenced them. They read a poem inspired by their chosen poet. This event features Caroline Bird vividly bringing Anna Wickham's wild spirit into the room and Jade Cuttle resurrecting Gisèle Prassinos through song. There is also an open mic section.
Standing at the back of the room, one of only a few men present, I was thrilled by the wealth of poetry shared from poets living and dead. I'm proud to be able to bring you this recording.
