The Screech Owls

BBC Radio 4
on BBC Radio 4 FM

by HONORE DE BALZAC dramatised in four parts by JOAN O'CONNOR
1: The Royalist and the Republican
The death of the King of France did not mean that the Royalists were dead, and in Brittany the people were willing to lay down their lives in the fight to reestablish the monarchy. For two people at least their political beliefs came to be at terrible odds with their personal feelings.
Directed by JANE MORGAN Stereo
