Description

In May 1940, Norfolk was shrouded in an atmosphere of unease. Ghosts haunted the woods and fields as Europe plunged into war. For William Abrehart, a strange and nature-loving boy who hadn't spoken since his father's mysterious death, life was a struggle to keep promises made to care for his mother and older sisters. As the weekend drew near, a complex web of lies and self-deception began to unravel. Rachel waited anxiously for news from France about her soldier sweetheart, while Kate harbored designs on an airman stationed nearby. Over the course of this momentous weekend, the past and present collided in a dramatic confrontation. Edward Parnell's 'The Listeners' is a dark and elegiac tale that explores grief, love, and loss through the power of stories and memories.
