Episode description

Peter Frankopan, professor of Global History at Oxford University, and Malte Herwig, journalist and Peter Handke biographer, join Christiane Amanpour to discuss the controversial decision to award writer and playwright Peter Handke with the Nobel Prize in Literature. Handke has been accused of being an apologist for the Serbian project of Slobodan Milosevic and the consequent ethnic cleansing which occurred in Bosnia. Grayson Perry, the London-based contemporary artist, explained his creative journey and the inspiration behind his new exhibit "Super Rich Interior Decoration." Our Walter Isaacson sat down with Rhiannon Giddens, award-winning musician and music scholar, to discuss her latest album "The Is No Other."
