Turkish writer reflects on deadly earthquake

Turkish writer and essayist Kaya Genc reflects on the growing anger in the country after the deadly earthquake which has claimed thousands of lives.

Also in the programme: a journalist who helped make a documentary nominated for a prestigious British accolade has been barred from attending the awards ceremony on security grounds.

And we will also hear from the one-time child prodigy Alma Deutscher who has just written an opera.

Joining Paul Henley to discuss these and other stories are Jacquelin Magnay the European Correspondent for The Australian, based in London and Yannis Palaiologos, correspondent at large for the Greek daily newspaper Kathimerini.
