Michael Berkeley talks to writer and broadcaster Joan Bakewell, whose most recent book 'The View from Here: Life at 70' confronts some challenging issues, including the nature of faith, what it means to be British and how we engage politically with the world around us.
Her musical choices reflect her strong belief in life-affirming qualities, and include a Mozart symphony, the finale of Schumann's Piano Concerto, Janacek's Intimate Letters String Quartet, and the finale of Rodgers and Hammerstein's Oklahoma!
