In this episode of My life with poetry, we meet Nigerian poet Logan February, currently living in Berlin, for a thoughtful conversation about poetry, influence, identity and the many ways a life can be shaped by language.
The youngest poet featured in the series so far, Logan began sharing poetry on Instagram and has since developed a distinctive and deeply considered poetic voice. He describes his own writing process as a form of mining – digging beneath the surface in search of something that has not yet been fully revealed.
In the conversation, Logan reflects on his early and current literary influences, the similarities and differences between the poetry scenes in Nigeria and Berlin, and the way his generation approaches writing and language today.
Thoughtful, wise and remarkably composed, Logan brings a unique perspective to My life with poetry – proving that poetic depth has little to do with age.
