Beyond The Pale

on BBC Radio 3

by William Trevor
with Prunella Scales and Sylvia Coleridge

'That man told me a story about two children who once were happy here and then became two murderers.... What happens in the mind of anyone who wishes to destroy? Don't you think we should root our heads out of the sand and wonder just once in a while? What is the truth about people who are so far beyond the pale?'
BBC Northern Ireland
