À propos de ce contenu audio
'With Love Lane, Gale gets right to the secret joys and hidden heartbreaks of ordinary, flawed family life. A tender, delicately devastating novel' Sarah Waters
'I adored this book. Patrick Gale's writing glows with compassion, as does his subtle, unflinching insight into his characters. Love Lane is an engulfing, deeply humane novel about the triumphs and failures of human connection' Marina Kemp
A reunion. A journey. A longing for a place called home...
When veteran Canadian wheat farmer, Harry Cane is obliged to sell up and sail home to an England transformed by two world wars, his arrival triggers unwelcome self-examination for the family he abandoned, and for whom he has never been more than a distant myth.
His daughter feels duty bound to take him in but is riven with doubt and ambushed by a long buried anger she has never before expressed. Harry's effect on the next generation is less predictable, and enables his granddaughter to deal with an unspeakable trauma, while her gentle husband feels seen for who he truly is.
Can Harry stay and make a new life before it's too late, or will he find himself cast out again, punished for having witnessed and understood too much?
LOVE LANE is a searing portrayal of escape and entrapment, and a powerful exploration of what home and family can really be.
' Love Lane is the story of a family, told beautifully and with deep understanding. There is no judgement here, only humanity. A joy and a lesson for our time' Ann Cleeves
'An involving story of reconciliation, secrets and compromises, rich in emotional truth and evocative historical detail' Clare Chambers

With Love Lane, Gale gets right to the secret joys and hidden heartbreaks of ordinary, flawed family life. A tender, delicately devastating novel
Miraculous, mischievous and quietly devastating, Love Lane is the irresistible story of five individuals, linked by the past and yet separated by the present. I have just fallen in love with a beautiful book
Five threads of storytelling interweave to form the braid of a novel both poignant and elegiac. A story of missed opportunities and, ultimately, a memorable story of forgiveness
Patrick Gale brings his usual compassionate sympathy, impeccable research and elegant style to his powerful new novel. Love Lane is an involving story of reconciliation, secrets and compromises, rich in emotional truth and evocative historical detail
I adored this book. Patrick Gale's writing glows with compassion, as does his subtle, unflinching insight into his characters. Love Lane is an engulfing, deeply humane novel about the triumphs and failures of human connection
An intimate and closely-observed novel - a family drama full of heart-rending moments illumined by the power of suppressed desire. The characters feel real, knowable and alive. Full of rich detail, this story brings private pasts to light with all of Gale's signature warmth, grace and humanity
I adored this book. Patrick Gale is one of the world's greatest storytellers. All the characters have unspoken truths. Hugely comforting and an absolute joy to read
There is no judgement here, only humanity. A joy and a lesson for our time
Love Lane moved me greatly. The novel has a great sweep, in its story, and in the richness and vividness of each of its character. This is a book about secrets and lies, yet Gale has such an exact and elegant power as a storyteller that the experience of reading the novel is rousing. I think it wonderful
He makes you care about the characters who feel real, and you so badly want the world to treat them with the respect, kindness and attention they deserve
A wonderfully hypnotic story of ties and bonds that can be outlawed but not broken. Unputdownable
He brings a musicality and rootedness to his prose along with a seemingly effortless skill of narrative that makes the work both compelling and rich. Crucially, he reminds us that while social mores and even laws may change, bigotry and brutality often lurk just beneath a polite surface. This is a vital tale, beautifully told
An extraordinary creation, one of the most atmospheric and subtly realised novels I've read in a long while
