Episode 5
Susie Campbell returns to the Poetry Bath with her new collection Wastelands, based on the area of West Surrey where she lives. In this episode Susie tells me about the landfill site she discovered there, how she wove ideas of waste, loss and reemergence into the book, and the different ways in which she and her dog Charlie navigate the land.
The Poetry Bath's theme tune is composed and performed by Nigel Horn.
In 2023 The Poetry Bath moved to Buzzsprout from Wildhart Radio. You can listen to all 51 earlier episodes via my website.
