As Covid and climate change make us conscious of our breathing, our sense of smell, and the air around us: how the arts considers the very air that we breathe. Korean-born, leading international artist Anicka Yi on creating work that 'sculpts' the air using smells, and her new installation, In Love With The World - in which flying machines called aerobes fill the air with scent. Plus, how opera, lullabies, and breathwork are helping Covid patients breathe more easily. We hear how English National Opera's ENO Breathe has brought long Covid sufferers together online to sing lullabies to help in their recovery. Datshiane Navanayagam speaks to Jenny Mollica, a Director at the ENO, singing specialist Suzi Zumpe, and participant Sharon Sullivan. Writer Qiu Xiaolong on his crime fiction about air pollution in China. At COP26 China came under scrutiny for its reluctance to end its use of coal. Qiu Xiaolong tells us how he is so concerned about the air in his home country, he based the 10th instalment of his best-selling Inspector Chen crime series, Hold Your Breath China, on the air pollution problem.

World Policy Institute — On today’s podcast, Chinese novelist Qiu Xiaolong discusses the inspiration behind his short story, “China’s Smoke-Smothered Sky,” which was featured in the latest issue of World Policy Journal. Qiu explains how political corruption stands in the way of almost every effort to combat the pollution affecting Chinese citizens on a daily basis.
With Kirsty Lang. Oh What a Lovely War, Joan Littlewood's controversial musical satire about the First World War, is being revived in its original home, the Theatre Royal Stratford East. The 1963 production, which Littlewood intended would mock 'the vulgarity of war', was loved by audiences, but detested by some who saw its message as unpatriotic. Critic and historian Kathryn Hughes reviews the production and considers whether the play has the same impact today. After the success of the 'Child 44' trilogy, author Tom Rob Smith has just published a somewhat different type of crime novel. 'The Farm' is a psychological thriller, set in Sweden and England, which keeps the reader guessing throughout. He reveals how the main premise for the novel was inspired by a real life event very close to home. The first series of the television drama, Line Of Duty, found many fans for its study of police corruption. The writer, Jed Mercurio, has now written a second series with a new police officer, Detective Inspector Lindsay Denton played by Keeley Hawes, under investigation. The writer MJ Hyland reviews. How best to translate a novel is a perennial question, but some authors whose works have been published in China have also found the stories themselves being censored. Kirsty hears from journalist Jonathan Fenby and from literary-translation rights specialist Jenny Robson - and US based crime-writer Qiu Xiaolong and Booker Prize winner AS Byatt relate their two very different experiences. Producer: Rebecca Armstrong.
