Acerca de esta escucha

 David Lambert is dissatisfied. Above all, he is dissatisfied with his wife, Rachel’s, dissatisfaction with him. He is all work and no play, and forever critical of the money she spends and of her constant disappointment with him and her life with him.

Apart from his contentious relationship with his wife, David is happy. He has a job he enjoys, he has a supportive family, he has friends, he adores his two sons, and the family is living in a château on the shores of the Mediterranean.

Is he expecting too much from life?

To answer that question, David delves back into the lives of his ancestors, their stories that he has heard from childhood.

There was the German spy who arrived in England in 1914 to sketch out the docks of the city where David was born. How terrifying must that have been? What were the minute-by-minute mechanics of being a foreign spy at that time, facing certain death if captured?

There was his great-great-grandfather, who was the Governor of German South-West Afrika during the first genocide of the twentieth century, having to try to balance the demands of imperial German colonialism with humanity – robbing the local tribes with kid gloves.

There was his grandfather who was a German born in England just prior to World War I – meticulous, hard-working, but despised as a little man, a foreigner.

And then there were David Lambert’s parents, very much in love in a time of war and personal turmoil, who set the bar for the life that David wished to live.

Is David a spoilt brat or someone who just wants a life he knows can be so much better?
