Description
'The Triple Echo' by H. E. Bates is a wartime novel set in rural England during the Second World War. Alice, a lonely farmer's wife, encounters Barton, a young soldier who has deserted from the army and is hiding in the countryside. Their relationship develops into an uneasy and increasingly complicated bond, while Barton disguises himself as a woman to avoid detection. Bates explores loneliness, desire, secrecy and the constraints of wartime society in a quiet but unsettling story. First published in 1970, the novel was later adapted into the 1972 film 'Triple Echo', starring Oliver Reed and Glenda Jackson.
