Double Borges
July 6th, 2009 by Steve Bowbrick
Over the last couple of years, Radio 7 has been re-running the excellent Centurions series of half-hour features about important artists and works of art from the last century, including this one, about Jorge Luis Borges' Fictions (MP3). AS Byatt and Alberto Manguel are the principle voices. In a more recent programme Peter White went on a pilgrimage to Argentina to see the Buenos Aires of his hero Borges and, while he was there, learnt about the project to make the great man's work available in Braille (MP3).
Only the Centurions programme will appear in the podcast but if you're listening on S3FM you'll hear both.
