Poetry Of Wales: Of The Flesh

In this episode, we investigate the amazing poetry of medieval poet, Gwerful Mechain. She champions body positivity, humour, standing up for women's rights - and all from fifteenth century Wales.

We also discuss poems by Menna Elfyn, Sheenagh Pugh, Gwyneth Lewis, Amanda Lovelace and Sharon Olds.
