Her searingly honest poem about the relationship between a mother and her teenage daughter has been studied by thousands of teenagers across the country.
And she has been described as the most intensely sensuous of writers and one reviewer has called her language 'as concrete as it is musical'.
Poet Gillian Clarke joins us to explore why her work seems to resonate with readers of all ages - and explains how her vantage point in the Welsh countryside has informed her new collection Making the Beds for the Dead.
Making Beds for the Dead by Gillian听Clarke, is published by Carcanet Press, ISBN 1 85754 737 3
