Synopsis
Series of evocative new stories set in the Netherlands, Belgium and Luxembourg.
By Gregory Norminton, set in the not-so-distant future in 'what remains of Belgium'.
Following floods caused by global warming, most of the Low Countries are now under the sea, but the medieval city of Bruges has survived due to a feat of engineering called The Fortress. The solidarity of two old friends - a Walloon historian and a Fleming engineer - is tested by the arrival on the scene of Jean's new girlfriend, Magdalena.
Read by Stephen Campbell Moore.
