Winter Sonata

Written by Dorothy Edwards

Narrated by Alan Avery

The central theme of Dorothy Edwards' writing, mirrors her own life, that of the marginalisation of women and the struggle of women to lead independent lives. In Winter Sonata, there is also the seeming inability for the men and women of the novel to connect in any deep way, reflecting Edward’s own lack of empathy.
