The Disguise
The writer Sarah Cuddon examines the impact of assuming an alias or pseudonym, both in what is hidden and what is revealed.
With reference to artists, writers, poets and the voices of different generations, including George Orwell, Marilyn Monroe, Fernando Pessoa and Homer Simpson, Sarah Cuddon examines the way a pseudonym helps us to embellish, conceal and reveal who we are.
With music from David Bowie, Gillian Welch and Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart.
Readings by Emma Fielding and Jonathan Keeble.
Produced by Alan Hall
A Falling Tree production for 大象传媒 Radio 4.
