Obstacles to Young Love

From one of the greatest comedic writers of a generation comes a story of love, faith and taxidermy. Three mighty obstacles threaten the burgeoning love of childhood sweethearts Timothy Pickering and Naomi Walls. They are Steven Venables, a dead curlew and God. 1978: Two lovers perch precariously on the cusp of adulthood. Timothys father decides its time for him to take on the family taxidermy business; while Naomi dreams of a career on the stage. Across the decades their lives continue to interweave, and occasionally cross bound by the pull of intoxicating first love. But will their destinies ultimately unite them? Nobbs moves his exceptional comic talent to a new-found depth. Memorable and moving, a tale of love won and love lost. You will never look at the art of taxidermy in the same way again.
