«Lark Rise to Candleford» is Flora Thompson's memoir trilogy, published by Penguin Classics in paperback (544 pages, in English).
The work evokes rural life in late 19th-century Oxfordshire through three communities: a hamlet, a village and a market town. From Flora Thompson's memory, the work portrays the lives of farmers and craftsmen, May Day festivities and children's games, with a warm gaze that turns the everyday into a testimony of a bygone era.
Omnibus volume bringing together the three parts: «Lark Rise», «Over to Candleford» and «Candleford Green», with an introduction by H. J. Massingham.
Will appeal to readers of British historical fiction and to those wishing to learn about English rural life in the late 19th century.
Flora Jane Thompson was an English novelist and poet best known for her semi-autobiographical trilogy about the English countryside, Lark Rise to Candleford.
