Sommario/riassunto

'This is a mad bloody world with you lot walking around in it' A once respected academic returns to his farm which has been managed without him for many years. He brings with him a new, beautiful, young wife. Their arrival turns the lives of the residents and his family upside down as old wounds are reopened, passions are awakened and thwarted ambitions bubble to the surface; threatening the lives of everyone involved. After sell-out successes of The Seagull and Three Sisters, awardwinning writer Anya Reiss reimagines this tragicomic masterpiece in a stunning new version for the 21st century.
