About this listen
Rupert Johnson’s path to an independent mind was always going to be unconventional. It was planned that way. But he wasn’t supposed to go alone. Rupert is destined to learn the hard way.
India. Scotland. Australia. Tunisia. His letter-writing and his fishing are the only constants, beyond independence. Above all else he dreams of the day he can lay claim to a Morton Smuggler, the world's most elusive fly fishing reel. The Morton Smuggler cannot be purchased; it can only be earned.
Against the hard lessons from wartime tragedy, stubborn nostalgia and the many injustices of existence, Rupert creeps towards an understanding of the things in life that can be felt but never seen.
Towards a Morton Smuggler.
