About this listen

Richard and Judy and international best-selling author.

A tragic love story spanning three decades, The Bench is Saskia Sarginson's most accomplished and heart-rending novel to date. For fans of One Day and A Star Is Born.

'We should have a plaque too,' he says. 'What would it say?'

I tilt my head. 'For Cat and Sam, who found each other and lost each other and found each other again,' I suggest.

It begins at the end.

It begins on a bench, on a heath, where a woman waits for a man.

Ten years ago, they made a pact:

On this bench, on this day, they will end a love affair that's spanned three decades, or start again.

They should never have met. They should never have fallen in love.

But they did, until a lie separated them for a lifetime.

Can they fix the mistake, forgive the lie, erase the years in between?

Can what was lost ever truly be found?

Critic reviews

"With echoes of David Nicholls's One Day, this romance has just the right mix of heart-melting moments and heart-rending near misses." (Good Housekeeping)

Beautiful story

This was a beautiful love story that spanned throughout the years. I especially love the ending and how they finally came together. The narrator did a great job as well.
