Description
Ever wanted to find out a bit more about poetry but didn't know where to begin? Ever wanted to be able to talk about a poem without actually having to study it? Hosts Dr Andrew Smith and Dr Tim McKenzie provide tasting notes to some of their favourite poems and talk about how they work, and why they're worth reading.
