‘Morning Sun’ focuses on Claire and Sylvia, who grew up together in a small religious village in England. At the age of twenty-one, Sylvia left the repressive climate of her hometown to seek her fortune elsewhere and later enjoyed fame as a writer of literary novels. Claire stayed on to keep the family farm running after her older brother died in an accident. Now, thirty-three years later, the two women meet again. In an attempt to explain what drew them so closely together at the time and ultimately drove them apart, we learn that both women were, indirectly, always involved in each other's lives.
‘Morning Sun’ explores the ways in which we’re bound to how and where we grew up, and most of all, how a first love can become a blueprint for all our subsequent relationships in life.
