Ian McMillan is joined by four guests for more poetry and performance . After a year characterised by wet weather, Alan Connor constructs a poem from 188 Words for Rain collected on travels around the country for his new book with that title. Comedian and writer Isy Suttie treats us to a new song written with the approaching Bonfire Night in mind, but the fireworks in the studio don't only come from her guitar. The other guests get a chance to join in too. Poet Pascale Petit opens up her first novel which took 17 years to write, examining the differences and similarities between poetry and prose and Deryn Rees Jones reads from her own work and takes on this week's neon line, "all the worse things come stalking in".

Avec Martine De Clercq, Pascale Petit, Stephen Romer & Valérie Rouzeau Rencontre animée par Jacques Darras Il flotte un air de rébellion sauvage sur l'Angleterre contemporaine. Des forces anciennes longtemps réprimées semblent s'être tout à coup libérées, bousculant l'une des démocraties les plus vieilles au monde. Une rupture s'est créée avec le Continent comme si l'espace juridique romain de la nouvelle Europe ne convenait plus à une nation où la Constitution se confond avec la Coutume. Simultanément un long régime monarchique fondé sur la réserve et la mesure prenait fin avec la mort de sa souveraine. Est-ce que la poésie britannique des dernières décennies avait anticipé ces chocs ? C'est ce que nous examinerons ce soir, en faisant entendre les textes de l'anthologie L'île rebelle, choisis et traduits par Martine De Clercq, et en écoutant les commentaires de deux des cinquante poètes anglais présents dans l'anthologie, Pascale Petit et Stephen Romer. La première, de père français et de mère galloise, a choisi d'écrire le poème en anglais. Dans son tout récent recueil Fauverie (Le Castor Astral), traduit par Valérie Rouzeau et préfacé par Martine De Clercq, elle aborde le sujet douloureux et grave de l'inceste qu'elle transcende héroïquement par la métaphore. Le second, Stephen Romer, le plus Français des poètes anglais puisqu'il a longtemps enseigné la littérature anglaise à l'Université de Tours tout en restant en contact avec Oxford, est un érudit subtil, passeur entre autres d'Yves Bonnefoy en anglais. Nous leur demanderons si l'humour serait plus que jamais la forme britannique de maintenir la « sauvagerie » de la société à distance ? Jacques Darras À lire – L'île rebelle. Anthologie de poésie britannique au tournant du XXIᵉ siècle, trad. de l'anglais par Martine De Clercq et Jacques Darras, édition de Martine De Clercq, préface de Jacques Darras, Poésie/Gallimard, 2022. Pascale Petit, Fauverie, trad. de l'anglais par Valérie Rouzeau, préface par Martine De Clercq, Le Castor Astral, 2014, rééd. 2023.

Ian McMillan is always at home in front of a crowd, and in this programme, recorded at Hay Festival, he is joined by some of our most exciting writers, performers and poets to explore the idea of homeliness - literal or metaphorical and to ask if writing can be a kind of home. His guests are: the poet Lemn Sissay, whose latest book, for children, is a celebration of curiosity and belonging; by Monica Ali, who casts her eye across family matters in her new novel 'Love Marriage'; by Daniel Morden - a consummate storyteller and performer, acquainted with all the myths of belonging; and by Tishani Doshi, whose poetry and prose is alert to the possibilities of a home - in the poem or in the body.

The Verb on 'green' memoir - with the actor and writer Gabriel Byrne, and the poets Elizabeth-Jane Burnett and Pascale Petit. What would our stories sound like if we told them through our relationships with the plants, animals and landscapes that are most dear to us? What happens when we start to see the natural world as an integral part of our own histories? Gabriel Byrne is an award-winning actor and writer. His new memoir 'Walking with Ghosts' starts emphatically and lyrically with the landscape of his childhood home in Ireland and the great pleasure he took in it as a child. Gabriel also talks about his relationship with the earth - the experience of feeling the ground shift during an earthquake in Los Angeles and about the 'photograph he carries in his heart' - a memory of a ploughman working the land. Pascale Petit won The Laurel Prize earlier this year (a new prize for poetry on environmental themes), for her remarkable poems fusing myth, the natural world (the teeming life of the rainforest) and her family relationships. Her new collection 'Tiger Girl' has at its heart, an encounter between a tiger and a baby - a baby who grew up to be Pascale's grandmother. Pascale also explains why the kapok tree is so special to her. Elizabeth-Jane Burnett's 'The Grassling' has been called a 'geological memoir' - it's a book which explores her deep appreciation for the red earth of Devon, where she grew up, alongside an account of her relationship with her father. Elizabeth-Jane reads new poems on the programme, poems which bring us closer to invertebrates and mosses. Always innovative in her approach to writing about intimacy with natural world, she also explains some of the writing processes that sit behind her work.

Join The Verb each week for ‘experiments in living' and experiments in language, as we build a new writing manifesto with the help of all our guests.   The first experiment is in nature poetry, and this week Ian is joined by Simon Armitage, the Poet Laureate. Simon has founded the Laurel Prize, an annual award for the best collection of nature or environmental poetry published over the last five years. He's joined by fellow Laurel Prize judge, Moniza Alvi, whose latest poetry collection is ‘Blackbird, Bye Bye'. Shortlisted for the Laurel Prize are Colin Simms for his collection ‘Hen Harrier Poems', Pascale Petit for ‘Mama Amazonica' and Karen McCarthy Woolf for ‘Seasonal Disturbances'. We hear readings of their poems on the programme. Karen's work is scored by Andrea Allegra.

Following the outcry at shool exam results downgraded by an algorithm and then revised to take into account human teachers expectations instead, we consider how algorithms perform versus humans in creativity in the arts – do they deserve an A* or a fail? What are algorithms used for in the arts? Can they be creative and make good work, or do we need the human touch? We're joined by Marcus Du Sautoy, mathematician and author of The Creativity Code, and artist Anna Ridler, who uses data sets and algorithms in her work. This Friday the 2020 Proms season begins. Despite being held behind closed doors for the first time in its history, the Proms 2020 promises an eclectic programme of live performances. The very first composition will be a specially commissioned piece by the British composer Hannah Kendall titled “Tuxedo: Vasco de Gama”, performed by the BBC Symphony Orchestra. She joins us to discuss the piece and what it's like to write it knowing there'll be a socially distanced orchestra and no live audience. A new film coming soon to Netflix has caused controversy - it's about an 11 year old Senegalese Muslim girl who moves to France and decides to join a dance group, in the face of parental disapproval. The poet Daljit Nagra, who curates the poetry programming on Radio 4 Extra, introduces three recently-published poetry books. Rachel Long’s debut collection, My Darling from the Lions; Pascale Petit’s mid-career book Tiger Girl , inspired by her grandmother’s life in India; and the Selected Poems 1965 – 2018 of Jeremy Hooker, who in his eightieth year, is still writing as beautifully and prolifically as ever.
