    Six poems from Matthew Clegg's 'Edgelands' (Longbarrow Press). Recorded at the Derwent Poetry Festival, Matlock Bath, 21 November 2009 (this selection comprises excerpts from a longer reading). Clegg's introduction emphasises the importance of walking to the development of the sequence, which invites the reader (or listener) to pause in spaces that would normally be 'only pass[ed] through... on your way to somewhere else'. You can hear a further selection of poems from 'Edgelands' at Edgelands (by Matthew Clegg) by Longbarrow Press
