Produktbeschreibung
A novel set in 1936 in Belgium and Ceylon, which charts the development of an unlikely friendship between a young Belgian teenager and a young English woman in her 20s. Kent is shortlisted for the Guardian International Development Competition, and this will have a big pre-pub buzz marketing campaign.
Glen Phayre, a young English woman in her twenties, has left England to live with her aunt, who runs a tea plantation in Ceylon and fills her days with good works, among them the task of writing letters to a Belgian prisoner. But the letters go astray, and are received instead by Marten, eager to discover the wide world outside his small village, and desperately missing his older brother Krelis, who has vanished and is presumed dead. Marten decides to reply to Glen in the guise of the grown-up prisoner she is expecting to hear from, and as their correspondence evolves, they both assume identities that, while false in many respects, remain true to their own selves in other ways.
