BBC Radio 4 - Poetry Please, Larry Beckett

Poetry, Please

Mark your calendar – Larry will be featured on yet another @bbc 4 radio program. (You caught his episode of Soul Music this past December, right? If not, listen to the archive – you’ll find a link at americancycle.us) The legendary Roger McGough welcomes Larry onto his show this Sunday, January 9, 2022. Larry performs, among other pieces, his poems “Blue Ridge” and “John Lennon,” as well as his translation of Guillaume Apollinaire’s “Mirabeau Bridge” and the Gerard Manley Hopkins innovative classic, “That Nature is a Heraclitean Fire and of the Comfort of the Resurrection.” The show will be available for download from https://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/m00138rw
