What is poetry?

Why do some people choose to express themselves through poetry?

LitFestBergen invites four poets to reflect over their own poetic practice, what poetry is and what the advantages of the poetic genre are. We meet British Alice Oswald, Finnish Pauli Tapio, Belarusian Valzhyna Mort and British Zaffar Kunial. The author Sivert Nesbø will chair the conversation about the power of poetry.
