We spoke to poet Holly Pester about her new ‘Café Poems’ in our August/September 2022 issue, as well as her 2021 poetry collection ‘Comic Timing’.

We are treated to some wonderful readings by Holly, discuss the role that poetry plays in finding new ways of thinking while confronting everyday issues, and Holly gives one of our listeners some writing advice in our ‘Literary Clinic’.
