The Wake by Zoe Green
It is four o'clock on a warm August afternoon in Farley Green and I am sitting on my balcony with a cup of broken orange pekoe and one of those apricot biscuits Mina bakes me, and I am planning my funeral on the back of an envelope. 6.30pm, I scrawl on the smudged brown paper. Dusk is fitting for the fifth act, the birds carolling forth my requiem beneath the dying sun, and the audience hunched in winter coats beneath the naked trees, awed and tearful at the symbolism of the set. |

Amit Chaudhuri
'I think that something new began to happen at the end of the 20th century, in that the reader no longer wanted to see himself portrayed, he actually wanted to occupy the space of the artist.' Amit Chaudhuri negotiates the relationship between teacher and pupil, and the blurring of the lines between audience and artist. He talks to Viola Fort.
