Lesson Eight: The Writer’s Mind

from The Invisible College Hosted by BBC Radio 4

The subconscious mind can be the writer’s greatest helper – or nastiest foe. This lesson considers ways to access its mysterious depths, with archive clips of novelists Doris Lessing and Aldous Huxley and a mesmerising reading of “I’ve Known Rivers” by poet Langston Hughes.
