Tomorrow's Anecdote

This is an Apple Books audiobook narrated by a digital voice based on a human narrator.

Just another day in the newsroom? Hardly.

It is 1987. Clare Forester is an overworked and under-appreciated features subeditor on a provincial paper in Somerset. She spends her time cheerfully ranting about her teenage daughter, the reclusive lodger, her spiteful mother, the Thatcher government, new technology, grubby journalists, petty union officials, her charming ex - and just about anything else that crosses her path.

If things aren't turbulent enough, on the night of Thursday, October 15th, the Great Storm sweeps across Britain, cutting a swathe of destruction across the country.

Things turn chaotic. Pushed to breaking point, Clare finally snaps and loses her temper with gale-force fury - with disastrous results.

As she struggles to cope, Clare soon comes to a bitter conclusion ...

Never trust the past. It lies.
