Kow by Jo Clement

Enchanted Isle

Available for 150 days

An argument between a couple living on the edge of poverty leads to the discovery of a duffel bag full of cash. Or does it? This original short story for Radio 4 revives the Northumberland myth of the Hedley Kow and asks if money really can solve everything. What’s the difference between need and desire? Appearances can be deceiving. Dr. Jo Clement is a New Writing North: Northern Writers' Award-winner. She is the author of Moveable Type and with Damian Le Bas, a co-author of Outlandish. Both poetry books were published with support from Arts Council England and Durham Book Festival. Jo is the Managing Editor of Butcher's Dog poetry magazine and is currently editing the first Roma Women’s Poetry Anthology made possible with support from the European Roma Institute for Arts and Culture. Kow is read by Hayley Corney Produced for ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½ Audio in Bristol by Maggie Ayre
