This month’s show is a replay of the first ever time Cherche Encore was on radio, back in 2018 on Comet Radio. It’s a compilation of readings and thoughts from poets and writers on poetry, imperialism, trauma and dissociation. The show was originally thought of after reading the poetry book Ban en Banlieue by Bhanu Kapil.
