BBC Radio 4 - Short Cuts, Series 12, Postcards

Josie Long presents stories of those who are far from home.

Josie Long presents stories for those far from home - unsent postcards, a last message and the journey for home. From 2017.

Josie Long presents stories of messages sent across borders. Unsent postcards, a last message and the journey for home.

An old handwritten note, in pursuit of a woman who ran away, leads to a town submerged in water; the writer Laura Barton discovers a tranche of muted, unsent missives in a storage box; and we hear the voices of those who are far from home.
