In this week’s episode we discuss Jocelyn Playfair’s A House in the Country. Written in 1944—when an Allied victory was still far from certain—the story is set at Brede Manor, a fine Georgian house that is hosting displaced wartime lodgers. The novel is a lovely elegy on the human experience and finding meaning in strange, dark times. In other words, highly relatable.
