A Terrible Kindness
57,00 zł
| Nineteen-year-old William Lavery is dressed for success tonight, his first black tie event. It’s the Midlands Chapter of the Institute of Embalmers Ladies’ Night Dinner Dance, and William is taking Gloria in her sequined evening gown. He can hardly believe his luck. But a telegram brings news of tragedy as the guests sip their drinks and smoke their post-dinner cigarettes. An event so terrible it will shake the nation. It is October 1966 and a coal mine landslide has buried a school: Aberfan. William decides he must act, so he volunteers. It will be his first job and, although he doesn’t know it yet, it will be a choice that threatens to sacrifice his own happiness. Working that night will force him to think about the little boy he used to be, and what he has worked so hard to bury. As William finds out, the more we give to others, the more we can heal. |
