A Summer Of Fire And Flood
Radio 4, 8pm
Although the worst effects of climate change are often framed as a problem for the future, this programme tells the story of three places at the sharp end of extreme weather events. In June, the Canadian village of Lytton smashed records, reaching an astonishing 49.6 degrees Celsius. Then it burned to the ground.
Keith Stuart’s novel The Frequency Of Us (Radio 4, 12 midday) tells the story of a man who believes that his wife vanished without trace on the night of an air raid on Bath.
The Book Of The Week: Slime: A Natural History (Radio 4, 9.45am & 12.30am) is read by Sirine Saba.
