Poems on the Underground

“Poems on the Underground was launched in 1986. The programme was the brainchild of American writer Judith Chernaik, whose aim was to bring poetry to the wide ranging audience of passengers on the Underground…. New sets of poems generally appear three times each year and are displayed in advertising spaces within the trains….
Contemporary and historical poems are included as the programme aims to give a wide variety of choice and style. Works from established and emerging poets from around the world are used.”

“You can listen to a selection of streamed contemporary poems featured on Poems on the Underground read by the authors and editors” on this related site.
