Publisher's Summary:
A BBC Radio 4 full-cast dramatisation of Paul Gallicos The Snow Goose by Nick Warburton, starring Steven Mackintosh.
When Open Book asked various authors to champion a favourite neglected classic on the programme, Michael Morpurgo chose The Snow Goose - perhaps no surprise, with his own story 'War Horse' depicting a friendship between a boy and his horse which takes them both into the horror of World War I.
In The Snow Goose, A wounded bird brings together a disfigured artist and a young girl on the eve of World War II. With Steven Mackintosh as Philip Rhayader, Georgia Groome as Fritha, Deborah Findlay as Mrs Farnes, and Sam Dale as the storyteller. Also featuring Michael Shelford, Malcolm Tierney, and David Seddon. Directed by Sally Avens.

The Snow Goose
This is a wonderful story that I remember from my childhood and plays into the Dunkirk spirit. Britain beleagued and alone, saves her defeated army by sending out every craft on the south coast of England to bring them off the coast of France. A moment in history which is defining for the British. Paul Gallico writes a haunting book and the BBC brings it to life.
Phenomenal
I listened to this story last night and I was absolutely transported. It was so thrilling to listen to the wonderful story and the wonderful dramatic reading. I recommend this to everyone. A beautiful, very very touching story that is unforgettable.
The snowGoose
The beautiful tale by Paul Gallico is wnerfully nariated by a. Superb cast. This is the classic tale of a girl, a bird and a disabled man who are bonded together in a way that they do not understand

A piece of salted caramel so beautifully bitter sweet that it will bring tears to your eyes or you have not heart. What a story of beauty and joy, the salt of tears and the warm enchanting conclusion your left with that your world in the end, no matter the problem will be OK. The story is like salted caramel. Or getting into a warm bed on a very cold night. Its a delight, there, thats all I can say. Get it. And enjoy a story, you will I assure you be sharing around your family for generations.
The Book is better
The book version had luscious prose and a sentimental but not cheesy story. The audible version is a dramatic reading so it is very much abridged. The actual book has a feeling of the grey, winter landscapes of Northern England. Philip Rhayader reminded me a little bit of Mr. Rochester although his personality is far nicer. Frith is a character very much like her surroundings with her wildness, fear and gentleness. The ending is tragic and yet is very beautiful.
