Poppies in October Revisited

‘Even the sun-clouds this morning cannot manage such skirts.’

This week, Sally returns to Sylvia Plath’s ‘Poppies in October.’ Listen for a mediation on the mouth, sound, and their essential role in approaching the lyric.

The wonderful piano music in the closing section is ‘Sirens’ by Paul Seba. More information on Paul and his work can be found here.

This episode was edited and produced by James Bowen.
