A cartographer returns to an isolated house on the moors where he once passed an idyllic summer tutoring, and reignites a life lasting love.

Read by Hattie Morahan.

One of five stories from William Trevor's final and posthumous collection, published in 2018 to coincide with what would have been his 90th Birthday.

Abridged by Rowan Routh.

Often described as the master of the short story, revered by his fellow writers and by his readers, these stories written in the last years of his life contain all his hallmarks; his piercing observation of human life, his humanity, his elegant prose and his distinctive voice.
