In the latest edition of our podcast, which talks to authors and poets about their creative practice, Fran Harvey chats with Door-to-Door poet Rowan McCabe about his new book The Door-To-Door Poet: My Adventures Across England.
The book is a funny, eccentric, warm-hearted account of his journey around England, in which he would knock on strangers’ doors, ask what was important to them, then return to their doorstep and perform a poem he had written for them, free of charge. From roaming around the Byker Wall to the remote island of Lundy and Buckingham Palace, Rowan’s book is a revealing and often thought-provoking chronicle of one man’s mission to bring poetry to the people.
