The Angry Penguins Hoax

Available for over a year

"Dear Sir. When I was going through my brother's things after his death, I found some poetry he had written..." 80 years after his work was first published, Vanessa Kisuule investigates the incredible case of one of Australia's most celebrated poets. It's a story that begins with a mysterious letter and ends with a trial. And it takes us to the heart of some big questions in poetry: What makes a poem good? Who gets to decide that? And - whisper it - is some poetry just nonsense? With Samela Harris, Michael Heyward, Stephen Orr, Maggie Nolan, David Brooks and Sam Riviere Readings by Nuala Honan and Flynn Barnard Produced by Mair Bosworth for BBC Audio
