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 – a hamlet, the nearby village and a small market town – 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 farmworkers and craftsmen, friends and relations – all painted with a gaiety and freshness of observation that make this trilogy an evocative and sensitive memorial to Victorian rural England.
With an introduction by H.J. Massingham
