Field Study by Rachel Seiffert
Requirements: Epub reader, 196 Kb
Overview: With a range of settings as diverse as the Scottish seaside and post-Communist eastern Germany, to the anonymity of a housing estate in any European town, Seiffert uses the locations of these stories to bring her characters into relief. Powerfully evoking our human need for connection, Field Study takes us on journeys that demonstrate both the fragility and adaptability of our emotions, as well as the vast potential for danger and vulnerability created by all types of love – familial, platonic or romantic." From a family that fears upsetting their little boy by moving house, to a wife who refuses to accept her husband’s condemnation of his own father; from a student conducting his scientific graduate studies of eastern European pollution, to the regrets of an elderly Englishman as he considers his behaviour during the Second World War, Seiffert isolates and captures not only the underlying and compelling sorrow of love, but also the joy and desire for that love that keeps us alive.
