Attracta

on BBC Radio 3

by WILLIAM TREVOR
with Mary Wimbush, Kate Binchy, Kevin Flood, Allan McClelland
'She didn't know he was dead, not even missing. She opened the biscuit-box, maybe thinking it contained a present. Can you see her doing that? Can you imagine her, a girl in a flowered dress, pausing as she hurried out to her office, her fingers tearing off brown paper?'
An old Irish schoolteacher re-assesses her life. 'There are the three places: Belfast, Haslemere and that town.'
