Michael Sheen voices The Rose Field audiobook which is available now! This clip is taken from an hour long conversation between Michael and Phillip which is available at the end of the audiobook.
She dreamed that Pan came back to her, without a word, at the darkest point of the night, and slipped under the sheepskins and found his old place around her neck.
‘It’s a window, Pan!’ she murmured. Like the ones we used to go through with Will! In the red building – a window into another world! The world where the roses come from! That's what it is!’
She heard the dream-Pan whisper, but what he said was a mystery, and in her dream itself, she fell asleep.
'We need the things we can’t explain, things we can’t prove, or else we die of suffocation. The secret commonwealth. The Rose Field. They’re necessary, and so are all the windows and doors and
openings, to let the wind blow through all the worlds.'
