The Monday Play: Remembrance

BBC Radio 4
on BBC Radio 4 FM

by Derek Walcott
Albert Perez Jordan is a retired schoolteacher and a poet. He lives, as he has always done, in Trinidad, but the place and the times have changed and children no longer chant English poetry but Black Power slogans. Jordan is looking back with regret and with amusement but he cannot escape the present.
