FRI 22:00 The Verb (m000159c) Barbara Kingsolver An extended interview with the acclaimed American author Barbara Kingsolver, who has just published her new novel ‘Unsheltered’ (Faber).

Barbara Kingsolver was born in 1955 and grew up in rural Kentucky, before becoming a published author, Barbara worked as a biologist and she has lived and worked in Europe, Africa and South America, all experiences that feed into her novels, which are set across the globe and amongst other big questions examine our impact on the planet. She published her first novel ‘The Bean Trees’ in 1988, and came to major prominence in 1998 with the publication of her best-selling novel ‘The Poisonwood Bible’, about a family of Missionaries who move from the U.S State of Georgia to the Belgian Congo in 1959. She won the Orange Prize for Fiction with her novel ‘The Lacuna’.

In this 45-minute conversation Ian McMillan discusses Kingsolver’s essays and poetry as well as her bestselling novels.

She says of her latest book, Unsheltered, ‘We’re living through a scary historical moment when the most basic agreements about who we are as citizens, and how we’ll succeed in the world, are suddenly unravelling. It isn’t the first time. People are such interesting animals. Unsheltered speaks to these moments, and uses the lens of unravellings past to ask where we might be headed’

FRI 22:45 The Essay (m000159f) Letters to Artists Dear Caravaggio 'Dear Albrecht, Everyone had hair like that - did they? I'll take your word for it. You were very good at hair, can I just say?'

In a series of imaginary correspondences, Ian Sansom is writing letters to five of history's most celebrated artists and interrogating them about, well, just about everything.

'Dear Caravaggio, you're the sort of man who might know: what is wrong with us?'

As the missives fly much is revealed about their lives as well as about Ian's current state of mind. Albrecht Durer is looking for an App developer. When Caravaggio asks for help finding a patron Ian suggests a crowd funding website. Meanwhile, how did Victorian photographer Julia Margaret Cameron get hold of Ian's address? Did her great niece Virginia Woolf pass on his details? And should he really be telling the Tate Modern that Picasso was having a mid-life crisis in 1932?

In his on-going quest to write more epistles than St Paul, it seems Ian is receiving surprising replies from some of our best- loved artists.
