Walk On By
By David Park. Choosing a new bed, a man realises that his future happiness totally depends on one decision - a single or a double. Read by Jason Watkins. From November 2014.
Three writers fictionally explore the memories and stories of what characters might have stashed away in the dark, under their beds with some shocking revelations.
Many children believe there is a monster or something strange and dark and menacing lurking under their bed, just waiting to leap out when the lights are off and everyone is asleep. As we grow up it's a place for hiding things, for playing or exploring. Later still it's where we stash the overspill of student or adult lives, where we keep boxes of photos or the detritus of life that holds memories we can't bring ourselves to throw away. It's where we hide the Christmas presents, stash diaries, love letters and wedding albums. As we get older still perhaps it's the place where slippers, half read books or life savings nestle. And it's a place which evolves and changes with us throughout life.
