Word Child

In "A Word Child," Hilary Burde, once an academic rising star, faces the weight of guilt and depression following a tragic accident involving his mentor and rival, Gunnar Jopling. Abandoning his promising career, he finds himself in an unfulfilling civil service job. At 41, a chance encounter with Gunnar sparks a transformative journey that explores themes of passion and the redemptive power of love, all set against the evocative backdrop of post-war London.
