Malcolm Muggeridge talks to
T. G. ROSENTHAL
' A basic conviction of mine Is that we are living in a period in which things are fizzling out. One is aware that something is coming to an end. and you have to make that clear before you can go on to say-as I believe-that though civilisation can come to an end. life doesn'come to an end. or the meaning of life. It's just a phase.'
An extended version of a conversation first broadcast in The World of Books on July 5
