Scottish Poetry Library Podcast

Our programme manager, Jennifer Williams – aka poet JL Williams (www.jlwilliamspoetry.co.uk) – had a fabulous adventure recently when she was invited to read at the 5th International Eskişehir Poetry Festival ((http://www.tepebasi.bel.tr/siir/)) in Turkey. In this podcast she shares an interview with the poet Nurduran Duman, as well as a soundscape of readings, interviews and music recorded along the way. We hope it will give you a taste of not only the extraordinary festival organised by Haydar Ergülen (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Haydar_Erg%C3%BClen) which featured international guests and Turkish poets, but also some of the delights of the very vibrant contemporary poetry scene in Turkey.
