    'In this edition, we're taking a literary road trip with poets Martin Harrison and Samuel Wagan Watson.

    In 2005, these two writers got together to read and discuss their work, both privately and with an audience at the Sydney Writers' Festival. Their readings form a conversation, a dialogue of poems, as they travel through urban and outback landscapes, noting the imagery of life on the road from their different perspectives.'
