Description
Ashbourn centres on the changing life of a fictional Suffolk village. Its monologues are spoken by characters who live in East Suffolk. Reibetanz has drawn on local records and transcribed oral history to create his poetry. He successfully catches something of the life of a small community as it emerges through the words and histories of its people.
