Poet and author Owen Sheers presents a series in which he explores six great
works of poetry set in the British landscape. Each poem explores a sense of
place and identity across Britain and opens the doors to captivating stories
about the places and the lives of the poets themselves.
Lynette Roberts is not a famous poet. She only published one full collection of
poems and her work has been almost forgotten, but her vivid, modern, hot-
blooded writing about a Welsh village and her time there during the Second
World War reveals an extraordinary woman and a brilliant poetic voice who
Robert Graves described in the 1940s as 'one of the few true poets now
writing'.
Roberts was brought up in a wealthy family in Argentina but married a writer
from Carmarthenshire in 1939 at the outbreak of war and spent the next nine
years living in poverty in a Welsh-speaking village. She involved herself in
every aspect of village life and despite being accused of being a spy found a
fierce passion for the local people and the landscape.
Sheers visits the unassuming village of Llanybri where she lived and is now
buried, and uncovers the moving story behind her poem called simply Poem from
Llanybri, an invitation to the young soldier poet Alun Lewis to pay her a
visit. He talks to locals who remember her and admire her work, and to the
National Poet of Wales, Gillian Clarke.
