What obligations do artists have to their work, their audience and the world?

It’s not surprising when art from the past doesn’t live up to the moral or ethical standards of our present society. But what about the beloved artists who don’t live up to the standards of their own work? In this special live recording of ABC Radio National’s The Minefield, hosts Waleed Aly and Scott Stephens discuss the complex relationship between a writer and their work with internationally acclaimed writer Anna Funder (Wifedom: Mrs Orwell’s Invisible Life).

Tackle some of the big questions around ethics, morality and art with Anna, Waleed and Scott.
