Paul Bailey tells the story of the Romanian Jewish playwright, novelist and music lover Mihail Sebastian. He talks to those who knew and have written about Sebastian, who wrote a journal from 1935 to 1944 charting the days of Romania's collaboration with the Nazis, and which also detailed his love of people, the best of world literature as well as classical music.
