Sinopsis

'Desire, class and Welsh nationalism prove a combustible combination in this brooding literary romance' Observer

'At once a love story and a simmering tale of class, identity, and masculinity' i paper

'Evokes North Wales in all its complexity, in water, resin and sky' Jessica Andrews
_______

Geth and Olwen live in different worlds. Olwen left North Wales for London to become a filmmaker and lives with her banker husband. Geth stayed in their rural hometown and works as a forester. They were in love once, but now they are strangers to each other.

That is, until Olwen returns, moving into the lakeside house that Geth looks after for absent English owners; the house he has come to think of as his own. Before they know it, they find themselves pulled back together - back into the past and what could have been - or still could be. Taking us from the incendiary world of radical politics in Thatcher's Britain to the housing crisis of the present day, Glass Houses is a story about love and friendship, about class and rural life, and about the disappointments of those who leave and those who stay.
