Hör hur vår Bokcirkel med författarna Frida Nilsson och Lars Gustafsson tolkar naturkatastrofen i sjumilaskogen. Hör också hur de med stor entusiasm gör om slutet på A.A. Milnes mästerverk, Nalle Puh. - Tar ni livslögnen från en människa så tar ni lyckan av honom med detsamma. Så lyder en klassisk replik i Henrik Ibsens pjäs Vildanden. Ja, hur är det nu? Är sanningen alltid eftersträvansvärd i alla lägen, eller kan en lögn vara konstruktiv? Vår reporter Jenny Teleman ger sig ut i ett grävande livslögnsreportage, rakt ned i Ibsens klassiker. Till sin hjälp har hon teaterregissören Anna Pettersson, aktuell med sin föreställning av Vildanden på Dramaten i Stockholm.   -  Om jag berättar för folk i mataffären i New York att jag är poet, så tror de att jag är galen. Om jag däremot säger att jag är professor, så blir de väldigt glada. Det säger Meena Alexander, turligt nog både poet och professor i engelska och kreativt skrivande i New York. Från början kommer hon från Kerala i Indien, hon har levt ett kringflackande liv, och nyss var hon på Sverigebesök. Vår reporter Naila Saleem träffade henne för att prata om hennes poesi.
