Sara Kestelman reads from the new and disturbing novel by Rose Tremain. Set in the Cevennes, an untamed area of southern France where traditions and secrets run deep, it is the story of two very different sets of siblings. Veronica and Anthony are privileged, cultured and English. Aramon and Audrun are French, rooted in the old stone mas and the land around it that their family have cultivated for generations, and in their shared and violent past. Suddenly appalled by his lonely life in London, Anthony seeks refuge with his beloved sister in southern France and there discovers a renewed hope. Meanwhile Aramon Lunel has his own plans - but not ones that his sister may be so taken with. Abridged by Sally Marmion.
