There鈥檚 a theme of writing this week, as Radio 1鈥檚 Richie Brave covers the sometimes controversial world of spoken word poetry on 1Xtra Talks. Dame Rose Tremain is on This Cultural Life, discussing how writing helped her process a difficult childhood, and Illuminated brings us the enduring appeal (and life span) of the simple message in a bottle. Plus, one very special young photographer who is capturing hearts as well as photos on PM.
