About this listen

After more than five decades away, author William Henry Forester returns to the Highlands not in search of closure, but of quiet. Where the Ash Tree Grows is the story of one man’s return to the place that shaped him, and the woman who walked beside him through each stone-walled lane, windswept ferry ride, and silent glen. Together, they retrace the landscapes of memory: from the cragged shores of Skye to the moss-draped bridges of Glen Affric, from quiet cafés in Edinburgh to the shadowed history of Glencoe. What begins as a journey through Scotland becomes a meditation on time, love, and the deep, slow healing of place. With gentle prose and vivid imagery, this book captures what it means to come home not just to a country—but to oneself.
