Lavinia Greenlaw and Mark Wallinger: On Difficulty (and Poetry)

In On Difficulty (Faber), her latest book of non-poetry, poet and essayist Lavinia Greenlaw explores the fascination, terror and opportunity of wrestling with the opaque, the obscure, the complex and the indeterminate. Is poetry really difficult, and do we like it more when it is? Can difficulty provide its own solution?

These and other questions were discussed by Lavinia Greenlaw and artist Mark Wallinger.
