Episode description

Our very special collaboration with the Stephen Spender Prize! The Stephen Spender Trust runs an annual competition for poetry in translation, doing very important work promoting translation in the UK. Give this episode a listen to hear the winning poem from the 2021 Open category winner, Harry Man, as well as interviews with Harry and the original Norwegian poet, Endre Ruset, and with judge Khairani Barokka, for an insight into what it is like behind the scenes of the biggest poetry translation competition in the UK.
