The Poetry Bath
The Poetry Bath is a place where poetry lovers can immerse themselves in words and word play. In each episode Siân meets a writer to listen to their work and explore the joys and challenges of the writing life.

Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
In this second part of our conversation, Barry Fentiman Hall and I talk about work, class and horrible jobs. We continue our discussion of his poem 'I Ran' and he tells me about going to the same school as his dad and the 'many-headed memory monsters' that are hospitals.
