Live from New York
Humphrey Carpenter meets
Don DeLillo , one of the masters of modern
American fiction, whose work draws on the subcultural codes of American life. His new novel is likely to prove the publishing event of the New Year. From ethereal, lyrical photos of women to a vat of voice-activated bubbling mud, the work of Robert Rauschenberg is some of the most inventive in contemporary art.
Humphrey Carpenter and guests discuss his major retrospective at the Guggenheim Museum.
Plus news from Broadway, where EL Doctorow 's great novel Ragtime has just opened as a musical and Paul Simon 's The Capeman is in preview. Producer Fiona Bailey
