This vintage BBC radio production from 1970 stars Martin Jarvis as Captain Stanhope. Bonus content: this BBC radio release includes The Man From Esher and his Theatre of War, a 30 minute documentary about R C Sherriff and the story behind Journey’s End.

Art. The greatest standard bearer of what the human condition really is? Or emperor’s clothes, cheap gimmicks displayed as all-knowing? When it comes to writing we have our favourite authors. But what of the authors themselves? What are they keen to write of? For our classic authors, from Poe to Lovecraft, from Woolf to Fitzgerald, art in their words is something to be admired. From many angles, many views, their stories, their characters interact with art, and the consequences fall as they may.
