Words That Burn
Benjamin Collopy
Poetry is insightful, stirring, incredibly beautiful but it can also be a labyrinth.
Join Ben, an Irishmen with a borderline obsessive love of poetry, on a trip through that labyrinth, one poem at a time.
Each episode Ben picks a single poem and does a close reading, showing you how to do the same. Each close reading focuses on the poet's life, the context of the poem's create and the litany of techniques used to create works that never fail to evoke emotions.
If you want to learn just a little bit more about poetry, in a gentle calm way that won't overanalyze, give it a listen now.
