Pastoral – War and Love (novel)

Before the war, they dreamed of who they would become.

England, 1939.

At a quiet RAF base, young men prepare for a future they can barely imagine. Among them is Herman Andersen, a Danish outsider, caught between countries, loyalties, and a growing sense that the life of him may be the one he has imagined.

The days pass in a strange stillness – training flights, long evenings, restless anticipation. War has been declared, yet for a time an almost unreal peace persists, leaving space for ambition, longing, and a love that may be more illusion than truth.

As reality begins to press in, Herman must confront the distance between the distance, who he is and who he hopes to become.

A novel of youth, identity, and the last moments of innocence before everything changes.

In the cockpit of an Airbus, crossing the Atlantic to San Francisco to talk about the novel.

It is always a pleasure to be with pilot colleagues from my time at Scandinavian Airlines, SAS.

 

 

“Was it wild geese? The sound of heavy wing beats and

low calling went on. Herman opened his eyes in the

darkness. Was he in the middle of a dream?”

(First lines in PASTORAL – WAR AND LOVE)
