About this book
Across twelve connected voices, Adam Thorpe traces the life of a fictional English village over more than three centuries. Farm workers, clergy, gentry and later inhabitants reveal a landscape shaped by labour, memory and social change. Moving from the seventeenth century towards the modern age, the novel makes rural history vivid through changing language and sharply individual perspectives.
