Episode 2
Living on their farm since childhood, twin brothers Lewis and Benjamin's bond has been extraordinary. Read by Iestyn Jones.
Iestyn Jones reads from Bruce Chatwin's novel about the lives of identical twin brothers Lewis and Benjamin Jones, on their farm in the Welsh Marches.
From earliest childhood, the twins seem to feel each other's happiness and pain, and often speak in a private language. By adolescence, differences begin to emerge but the brothers' bond is stronger than ever.
