Soft City

on BBC Radio 3

Three talks by Jonathan Raban on the way we mould, and are moulded by, our urban environment
1: The Rejected City
Jonathan Raban argues that 'even though our writers, our planners and many of our intellectuals are conspicuously rejecting the city as a way of life. urban styles and performances survive and proliferate. People still come to the city because it is only in that labyrinth that they can make an identity for themselves.' Producer GEORGE MACBETH
