Carol Ann Duffy, the author of acclaimed poems such as Havisham and Medusa, imparts her take on writing about the natural world in this excerpt of her upcoming BBC Maestro course on writing poetry.
She suggests that poetry’s power comes from naming what is around us, and that when talking about the natural world today, the strength of the words will come from bringing the harsh truths to the paper in front of you.
Learn how to approach delicate and complex subjects to create powerful, timeless poetry, with Carol Ann Duffy's course on Poetry Writing, coming soon to BBC Maestro.
