About this listen

I was privileged to visit JLM Morton's (Juliette) local wild swimming spot to talk about her connection with nature. From the mysticism of white magpies and the spiritual power of water to a heart-in-your-mouth meeting with a silverback gorilla, this podcast is one hundred per cent loveliness. Hopefully you'll hear some of the nature sounds from our outdoor location.:)

Juliette's publications include the poetry collection "Red Handed" and "Forest" which has a fantastic animation here and her awards include a 2024 Highly Commended by the Forward Prizes, longlist for the National Poetry Competition, the London Magazine Poetry Competition and for the Nan Shepherd Prize in September 2023 for nonfiction. Brilliant!
