How I hate incomplete information!
Anyway, this story is beautifully written, but I found I enjoyed the "mundane" parts of it far more than the fantastical elements. A man returns from WWII to his family home somewhere in the U.K., only to find that his brother has now taken up the same obsession that his father had before them: mapping and exploring the primeval woods bordering the property.
This was later turned into a full-length novel, and indeed a series. I'm not interested enough to read further, I'm afraid, although I do still appreciate the writing itself.
Oddly, the reminded me very much of the much-later-written first book in Jeff VanderMeer's Southern Reach trilogy, Annihilation. Same fluctuating "borders" around a mysterious region, characters obsessed and eventually following one another in, same lack of answers.... ( )
