To kick off series 2, Tara talks to Manchester-based performance poet, children’s poet, and vegan activist Dominic Berry (https://dominicberry.net/).

Dominic reads some of his poems, and Tara and Dominic discuss inclusivity in the performance poetry world, the place of ‘rage’ in contemporary poetry, and the challenge of writing for different audiences. Throughout they consider the importance of spoken performance to Dominic’s work. [TW: use of strong language]
