  TALES FROM THE VILLAGEby Quentin Drummond Anderson 
  POWER. TRADITION. SECRETS. CHANGE. 
  In Trenton Stable, a picturesque English village, centuries of history and hidden truths lie beneath the surface. Behind manicured hedges, a battle unfolds between preservation and progress. 
  Edward Sherston, eighth-generation squire, faces unprecedented challenges to his ordered world. Through eleven interconnected stories, witness his evolution as power shifts beneath his feet. 
  From "The Family Pew," where a ghostly presence signals unfinished business, to "The Carol's Echo," where a newcomer reveals buried connections, Anderson explores community power with precision. 
  Supernatural elements embody suppressed histories: an amber brooch granting longevity, impossible roses, ancient boundary stones revealed during a hunt. 
  When traditions are challenged—from carnival queen selection to development plans—Edward must decide if stewardship means control or embracing change. 
  Anderson's crystalline prose captures both village details and psychological complexities. His dialogue brilliantly conveys the English art of saying one thing while meaning another. 
  The village emerges as the most compelling character—a living entity with an identity beyond any individual's control. 
  For readers of rural British fiction, these stories examine how community structures are maintained, challenged, and transformed, bringing contemporary sensibility to countryside novels. 
  These tales will haunt—not merely through supernatural elements, but through insights into how power shapes lives and how established hierarchies contain seeds of transformation.

  H.G. Wells is widely regarded as one of the most imaginative and visionary writers of the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Best known for his groundbreaking science fiction novels like The War of the Worlds and The Time Machine, Wells was also a prolific short story writer, producing a diverse body of work that explored many of the same themes as his longer novels: the wonders and perils of scientific progress, the mysteries of the human mind, and the complex relationship between society and the individual. 
  Wells’ short stories, though perhaps less celebrated than his novels, serve as a window into his vast intellectual curiosity and creative range. These stories often play with speculative ideas in compact, inventive ways, offering a glimpse of his talent for combining narrative flair with philosophical inquiry. In these pages, the reader will find tales of strange inventions, eerie encounters, and dystopian visions, all of which reflect Wells’ keen interest in the future of humanity and the ethical dilemmas that arise with technological advancement. 
  Head Stories Audio presents their second selection of Short Stories by H.G Wells, narrated by Simon Hester. With original music.
