Description

One of my best interviews from Jaipur Literature Festival 2020 was of Ruth Padel who comes up with her own version of lyrical tribute to one of the greatest composers Beethoven. She explores his life and through her book 'Beethoven Variations: A Life in Poems' she sketches a tragic life story that left behind some of the best music to the world. Ruth also recites her poetry making this one of my best interactions.
