And The Money Goes To

Thursday 26 August 2004 20:35-20:55 (Radio 3)

The reading of a will can be a tense, surprising and controversial occasion, the perfect basis for a plot. This programme looks at how wills have become a popular dramatic device in fiction, used by Puccini in Gianni Schichi and particularly favoured by Victorian writers such as Dickens and George Eliot.

Duration:

20 minutes
