What do we mean by perfection and is the pursuit of it a
pointless exercise? We hear from poet Charly Cox about why just
the word alone is enough to induce anxiety, Sebastian Faulks
considers where in the arts perfection might lie and why
capturing it might mean a journey to perfection and then back
again. Finally we hear from novelist Gabriel Tallent who shares
the sheer blood, sweat and tears of writing his debut novel.
