The Essay

On Auden

Four poets salute the centenary of WH Auden's birth.

4/4. Peter Porter explores Auden's plays and libretti. He looks at The Dog Beneath the Skin, written with Christopher Isherwood, and the libretto of Stravinsky's The Rake's Progress. Porter believes that in addition to Auden's stature as one of the 20th Century's finest lyric poets, these works guarantee his place among the finest dramatic writers.

Read by Tim Pigott-Smith.
