Just a link to a BBC Radio Three Sunday Feature I scripted and presented, Unlocking Anne, that was broadcast this evening.
Anne Locke wrote the first sonnet sequence in the English language – a dark meditation on Psalm 51 about adultery, guilt, sin and the soul that I think prefigures John Donne’s Holy Sonnets (and plays, as he does on ‘done’ and undone’, with ‘lock’ and ‘look’) – and it was an absolute pleasure to contribute towards the work of reinserting her into the canon – many thanks to producer Sarah Shebbeare.
We don’t have any pictures of Anne Locke, so instead here’s one of our new kitten, Sinbad.
Happy new year.

Hello Clare,
Really enjoyed Unlocking Anne on Radio 3 on Sunday. Your Mum alerted me.
Like the addition to the family, Sinbad.
Hope you are all well.
Love, John xx
