Sunday Play: The Father

on BBC Radio 3

By August Strindberg, translated and adapted by Eivor Martinus. One hundred and fifty years after his birth, August Strindberg 's drama still finds resonances in today's headlines. A mother knows her child, but the seed of doubt about paternity can poison a father's mind beyond repair.
