A Warning (To The House That Holds Me) - a podcast by Free Word

Listen back to the launch of Somali-British writer Amina Jama’s debut poetry collection, exploring the legacy of poetry and art, and the ways we are influenced by the voices that have come before us.

Edited by Jacob Sam-La Rose and published by Flipped Eye, A Warning To The House That Holds Me responds to the work of Safia Ehillio, Hanif Abdurraqib, Ocean Vuong, Caroline Bird and most prominently Frida Kahlo. Amina Jama draws on experiences of home, autonomy and passage, writing in conversation with Kahlo and exploring the varied and unusual spaces some call home.

This podcast features readings from some of the freshest, most exciting voices in the UK poetry and performance scene including poets Ola Elhassan, Amaal Said, Sumia Jaama, Suhaiymah Manzoor-Khan, Hibaq Osman and musician Dulaeh Oke. Hosted by poet and visual artist Ruth Sutoyé.
