Two satirical and macabre short plays about the place of the writer in society by Swiss playwright Friedrich D眉rrenmatt. In new versions for radio by and featuring Ian McDiarmid.

A CONVERSATION AT NIGHT
A prominent liberal writer in an unnamed European dictatorship comes face-to-face with the state assassin assigned to kill him. The writer has long awaited his visitor and - as they wait for the inevitable - the writer defends his right to freedom of expression.

AN INCIDENT AT TWILIGHT
A Nobel laureate is confronted in his luxurious hotel room by a shabby retired bookkeeper. All of the author鈥檚 novels have centred on the death of a character - and the bookkeeper believes that these deaths have been real - not fictional. Can he possibly be right?
