OnAuden
4/4. Peter Porter examines WH Auden's plays and libretti that he considers have been undervalued - The Dog beneath the Skin, written with Christopher Isherwood , and the libretto for Stravinsky's The Rake's Progress - and argues that these works guarantee Auden's place among the finest dramatic writers of the 20th century. The reader is Tim Pigott-Smith .
