- Arts
You cannot mistake the top hat wearing man with the glorious white beard and jewel-coloured garb, master storyteller and poet John Row. In this podcast John talks to Maria Whatton about his rich poetic narratives formed from collecting people’s memories, thoughts and opinions. Common experiences, censorship, and respect are part of the discussion around a form of writing that captures moments in time, conflict and change. These written works are rich in imagery, place and time, fragments of lived lives that may otherwise never be heard.
