There is a German proverb about parents and children, that the apple never falls far from the tree. My poems come from the apple as it falls through the air or from where it lies on the ground, sweet, waspish, mouldering.
Michael Hofmann introduces and reads poems about his father from his recent volume, Acrimony. (R)
Act 3
History records that Francis Crick, James Watson and Maurice Wilkins found the secret of life by unravelling the structure of DNA, the material of inheritance. But there was another player in the game. At King's College in London, Rosalind Franklin had carried out research which was vital to Crick's and Watson's success.
Why then is she almost unknown?
Professor Lewis Wolpert conducts an inquiry into the intrigue, dispute and tragedy that surround the discovery of the double helix.
Contributors include Aaron Klug, Francis Crick, Maurice Wilkins and Raymond Gosling.
