'The Village; A Year in Twelve Tales' chronicles the life of a modern, semi-rural English village over the course of one calendar year.
It is New Year and the villagers are making plans. A father and son visit a disused aerodrome, where they find a mysterious link to their past. In Spring a young boy becomes entranced by nature as he seeks and finds a hare. A marriage enters its death throes. May-time sees a gardening competition re-kindle an old rivalry and there are dastardly deeds at the Summer Fete. Real violence erupts with an influx of transient newcomers at harvest time. Later a new arrival to the village learns the importance of first impressions.
These twelve, inter-linked stories portray a year in the life of the village and its wide cast of characters, as four generations of the Marshall family negotiate the hazards of family life. Babies are born, children grow, matches are made or marriages founder and death, both anticipated and unlooked for, pays a call.
