Lost Voices of Afghanistan

Poet Daljit Nagra introduces Lost Voices of Afghanistan in which Afghan people share trauma and protest in tender poetry. From 2011.

Poet Daljit Nagra revisits the Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ's radio poetry archive with 'Lost Voices of Afghanistan'.

When Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ Correspondent Jonathan Charles made an appeal on Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ World Service for Afghan civilians to send in their war poetry, little did he anticipate the flood of writing it would inspire.

Here, he explores a selection of those poems and interviews the authors.

Producer: Laura Parfitt

A White Pebble Media production for Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ Radio 4 first broadcast in 2011.
