SERIES 1: EPISODE 3: Tracing the footsteps of Ivor Gurney with Kate Kennedy
EPISODE 3
Kate Kennedy has written a mesmerising and deeply moving book about the poet and composer Ivor Gurney, Dweller in Shadows. Gurney's life was beset by mental illness, disappointment and the trauma of war. He spent the last fifteen years of his life in an asylum, separated from the Gloucestershire countryside which shines from his work. In this episode Kate and Charlie explore the same fields that Gurney loved to walk, Kate talks about his life, and we hear some of the music Gurney was celebrated for.
