Flora Thompson’s immortal trilogy, containing “Lark Rise”, “Over To Candleford” and “Candleford Green”, is a heartwarming portrayal of country life at the close of the 19th century.
This story of three closely related Oxfordshire communities is based on the author’s experiences during childhood and youth.
It chronicles May Day celebrations and forgotten children’s games, the daily lives of farm workers, friends and relations.
The freshness of the observation make this trilogy an evocative and sensitive memorial to Victorian rural England.
