Playhouse: The Happy Autumn Fields

on BBC Two England

by ELIZABETH BOWEN dramatised by WILLIAM TREVOR
Time is playing tricks on Mary. Around her the walls are crumbling- all the houses are being pulled down. Why does she insist on staying, caught in a dream about a family, years ago, out walking in the fields after the harvest? And who was Sarah, that beautiful young girl, whose sister couldn't bear that she was in love?
