episode 137: Stephen Sexton - Interview - Retro Gaming Poet Based on Super Mario World
Something a bit different today. To mark national poetry day here in the UK Adrian caught up with upcoming poet (who The Sunday Times described as the new Seamus Heaney) Stephen Sexton to talk about his book titled "If All the World and Love Were Young".
Why is this important for retro gamers? The book is a wonderful compilation of poems about Stephen's late mother that mirror the levels in Super Mario World and is receiving critical acclaim across the board. So, get those tissues at the ready and prepare yourself for this lovely chat.
You can buy the book here:
