Recorded in front of an audience at the Edinburgh International Conference Centre, Ian McMillan hosts poets Liz Lochhead, Robert Crawford and Hannah Lavery at the city's annual arts festival.

Hannah Lavery is a writer and former Makar of Edinburgh whose work has been described as a 鈥渂eautiful and shattering ritual of rage and mourning鈥�. She performs her work 'Edinburgh Is A Story', commissioned by the Edinburgh International Festival, along with 'My Work Is Loving The World' and 'Miss Has Started Using Sunbeds'.

Robert Crawford, author of books about writers as different as TS Eliot and Robert Burns, reads from his new collection 'Old World', a Scots version of Enheduanna, and brings us right to the heart of the city with 'Camera Obscura' and 'Mons Meg'.

Liz Lochhead, former Makar of Scotland, reads a selection of poems including 'Trouble Is Not My Middle Name', 'Coming To Poetry' and the wonderfully wicked 'Song For A Dirty Diva'.
