Episode Synopsis "Philip Pullman: The effects of reading a poem aloud (Paradise Lost)"

Here I read a few choice pages from Philip Pullman's book "Daemon Voices. Essays on Storytelling" -- in particular his deliberation on what happens when you read a poem aloud as a way of understanding it.  He uses Milton's poem Paradise Lost as an example.   MUSIC: http://www.blockmrecords.org/bach/detail.php?ID=BWV0542 James Kibble's performance of Bach's Toccata and Fugue in D Minor, BWV 565 Royalty free
