Night Waves

on BBC Radio 3

Isabel Hilton talks to Chinese poet and novelist Ha Jin, who moved to America in 1989 and who won the National Book Award with his first full-length novel, Waiting. The story, set in sixties China, explores the demands of Communism and traditional values on a man seeking divorce from his illiterate peasant wife.

Plus another feature in this week's series on Britain's less well known museums.
