“Whoever makes up a story makes up a world, so you should always try and welcome people into the home of your story. That’s my suggestion.”
Summer 2016. Britain has voted to leave the European Union, Elisabeth has returned home to the village she grew up in and her elderly former next-door neighbour Daniel won’t wake up. New fences are going up, the library is closed and her mother keeps talking about the latest antiques show on TV.
Elsewhere, the sleeping Daniel Gluck dreams—of his long-lost little sister, of Christine Keeler; of art, poetry and music.
