Produktbeschreibung

'Dawn at eventide' is set during the First World War and tells the tale of a supernatural event that was witnessed by the narrator whilst visiting France. His direct involvement comes to light after meeting a mysterious priest. He awakens the following morning to discover that he has written the chronicle of two soldiers. The main body of the novel is the story of these soldiers who walk to a tiny village in the middle of a deep forest. Here, they stumble upon a legend in which they are unwittingly involved. The legend concerns a knight of the Middle Ages who falls in love with a peasant girl. The ruling aristocracy takes umbrage and the knight mysteriously disappears. The girl awaits his return through the ensuing centuries. One of the soldiers discovers that he is the knight returned and is reunited with his true love. The narrator finishes, as he began, with his thoughts on love and peace.
