À propos de cet audio

In Freelands, we delve into the complexities of the Freelands family, a diverse clan navigating the turbulent waters of their time. Tod Freeland, a gentle giant with few words, contrasts sharply with his passionate and outspoken wife, Kirsteen. Their family is a tapestry of personalities Felix, the introspective literary soul, Stanley, the astute businessman, and John, the politically-minded member. Their mother, a practical yet uncomprehending matriarch, adds another layer to this multifaceted narrative. Meanwhile, the younger generation, Nedda and Derek, find themselves swept up in a whirlwind romance. Set against the backdrop of the pressing land question—a critical issue during a time when British agriculture faced severe challenges due to imported food—the story explores the divide between rich landowners and struggling laborers. As the Freelands grapple with their differing views and the social commentary woven throughout, we witness a poignant love story that underscores the bonds of family amidst conflict.
