Available for 15 days

Author Geoff Dyer sets his own experiences against the last days and final and unfinished achievements of writers, painters, athletes and musicians who've mattered to him throughout his life. Geoff's series of wide ranging reflections include having had a minor stroke and late middle age – or should that be early old age? With a playful charm and penetrating intelligence, he examines a series of notable endings and considers the intensifications and modifications of experience that come when an ending is within sight. Oh, and there's some stuff, but not too much, about tennis, too. This book on last things - written while life as we know it seemed to be coming to an end - is also about how to go on living with art and beauty. Omnibus of five episodes abridged by Jill Waters. Read by David Schofield. Producer: Jill Waters A Waters Company production for ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½ Radio 4, first broadcast in July 2022.
