In this week's show we chat to poet Nicholas Powell about his new collection, Trap Landscape(link is external), soon to be launched in Melbourne. Powell is winner of the 2011 Thomas Shapcott Poetry Prize. His latest work is described as "Word play and vernacular colliding to re-imagine language in a dreamscape".

Also in the show we hear a poem by Andy Jackson(link is external), and part one of a live recording of Jennifer Compton at The Cherry Tree Hotel.
