Joelle Taylor


We spoke to award-winning poet, playwright, author and educator, Joelle Taylor. Her most recent collection, C+NTO & Othered Poems (Westbourne Press, 2021) was the winner of the T.S. Eliot Award 2021. She is co-curator and host of Out-Spoken Live, a live poetry and performance club in residence at the Southbank Centre.

We discuss her new poem in our October/November issue, ‘the o god’, as well as her award-winning collection C+NTO & Othered Poems, and Joelle gives one of our listeners her best tips for finding a literary community.
