Mesmerising, captivating and thought-provoking, the village of Barrowbeck is the main character, it's people formed by their experiences of place and history, There is horror, there is love, and there are many strange happenings in this loose collection of stories that all add up to the power of place and the importance of belonging as the relentless nature of Barrowbeck influences all who live or visit there.
It's a deeply immersive, truly strange meditation that is worth pursuing as it speaks of much that we as individuals should pay attention to if we aren't to lose our own places.
