Welcome to the Scottish Poetry Library podcast

Our podcast is published fairly regularly with a combination of new and archive episodes going back to the opening of the new library building in 1999. The Scottish Poetry Library website also has a wealth of poems and resources to explore. Finally, you can visit us in our beautiful building just off the Royal Mile in Edinburgh. It's free to join and free to visit.

In this podcast, recorded in August 2013 during the Edinburgh International Book Festival, Glyn Maxwell reads poems from his collection Pluto (Picador) and talks with Jennifer Williams about the breath and blood of poetry, how actors are the best first readers, why Auden is so important to his work and much more.
