Goodness
Author(s): Michael Redhill
Recounts a trip Redhill takes to Poland to find out more about his great-grandparents who died in the Holocaust. Thwarted by witnesses unwilling to talk, he returns home via London where he is introduced to Althea, a survivor of an unidentified late-20th-century genocide. He is told, in confidence, a terrible tale of murder and injustice. Goodness is a tense drama that explores genocide through an intricate knot of flashbacks.
