The reluctant interviewee
Artist Edward Burra is being interviewed by Carole Smith for an Arts Council film that was released in 1973:
"Do you think you're clever at fending questions off?"
"Hmm. Seem to be fairly, one way and another, don't you think? You do? Mmm."
"Would you say you were a difficult person to interview?"An audio clip can be found on BBC Radio 4's Great Lives programme from September 2014.
"I should say so. I'm not very forthcoming, I don't think."
