Summary: <p>This week we’re celebrating Europeans who refused to let boundaries get in the way of things. The historian Orlando Figes is here to talk about the continent-crossing lovers at the heart of his new book, the brilliantly-named ‘<a href="https://www.theguardian.com/books/2019/sep/07/the-europeans-making-cosmopolitan-culture-orlando-figes-review">The Europeans</a>’. The poet Christopher Hütmannsberger reads us a beautiful new work to mark 30 years since the fall of the Berlin Wall. Plus, wild borders and the Gentle Revolution.<br> <br> Thanks to our amazing Patreon supporters for keeping us going!
