Fran Lock has a wonderful virtual sit-down with Alan Humm, founder and editor of One Hand Clapping,  a free online magazine that attempts to help new, under-represented and unpublished authors, as well as artists, musicians and composers, by featuring them in the same pages as those who are more established.  Alan is a writer and a teacher of English who has just completed his first collection, the intriguingly titled: A Brief and Biased History of Love.  He is also the editor and founder of One Hand Clapping Magazine, which began its online life last year, but which published a single glorious print version three years prior, and we're going to talk about that and about the transition from print to digital a little later on. So far, we have been lucky enough to feature work by Ali Smith, Les Murray, Hilary Mantel, Lydia Davis, Mark Doty, Colm Toibin, Paul Muldoon, John Burnside, Gillian Clarke, David Harsent, Martin Parr, and many others alongside our less-well-known contributors. They've managed to build a readership to be proud of.  https://www.1handclapping.online/ --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/socialyetdistanced/message Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/socialyetdistanced/support

One of the world's pre-eminent and prolific poets shares his extraordinary life journey and wisdom. From war-time, working class beginnings and an horrific education where he was taught by “bullying ignoramuses” (one of whom predicted he'd never amount to anything); David recounts how he found his love of poetry through a series of chance meetings and incidents. We discuss the absurdness of war and violence towards children; why Dylan Thomas is not a great poet; and the importance of dealing with rejection and never taking no for an answer. David also reads poems from his last collection “Salt” (2017) and his new book of poetry - “Loss” - will be published in January 2020.

I don't feel any such responsibility at all, because I can't help being white and I can't help being male, any more than I can help being working class — David Harsent Sean Robinson met with David Harsent after his reading at Toppings in December, where he was promoting his twelfth collection of poetry, 'Salt'. In this interview David urged young writers to take their own risks, to 'sacrifice good for unsafe'. He talked about his preference for poetry which uses fictional constructs as opposed to confession. Sean and he also discussed the pressures of making money alongside poetry; the need to read omnivorously; and poetry's political role, or lack thereof. This episode of the podcast was  produced with Stephen Sacco.

Fellow Lancastrians Harrison Birtwistle and bass John Tomlinson talk about three-decades of creative collaboration, including the operatic roles Birtwistle, alongside librettist David Harsent, created especially for Tomlinson. The first was in 1991: the Green Knight and Bertilak in 'Gawain' and the second, the title role in 'The Minotaur' from 2007. But their collaboration goes back further still – to the recording of Birtwistle’s first opera in 1979.

David Harsent is one of the UK's leading poets, as his recent T.S. Eliot Prize-win for his collection Fire Songs (Faber) re-affirmed. In August 2014, while up in Edinburgh for Book Festival, Harsent took some time to speak to the SPL. In a wide-ranging conversation, Harsent spoke about harrier hens, the heat death of the universe and the time he met Serbian war criminal Radovan Karadžić.
