Michael Freedland speaks to Shimon Peres, leader of Israel’s opposition Labour party as the country approaches elections, and to Yosef Mendelevitch, the 'refusenik' rabbi, on his release from a Soviet prison. He also hears from the writer and convert to Judaism, Devorah Wigoder, about her new book, Hope is my House. This is a programme from the BBC archive, originally broadcast on BBC Radio in the 1980s.
