with Paul Scofield as Richard Jefferies
A monologue from the last essays of Richard Jefferies , compiled by ROGER FRITH
Long after Richard Jefferies removed from Coate Farm, his native home near Swindon, he would return there in spirit and imagination, as his numerous novels and essays bear witness.
' I planted myself everywhere, under the trees, in the fields and footpaths, by day and night,' he said in his last essay, My Old Village.
It is no wonder, then. that one summers day at Goring-by-Sea, his last home in Sussex, he should be discovered again at Coate, the cradle of his experiences and ' soul life ', reflecting on nature and the future of mankind.
