Reviews

A graceful and confident writer; the little Cumberland town of Thurston during the slump years, the Second World War and after, is beautifully realised
The Observer
Quite masterly
Daily Telegraph
Places him solidly in the main tradition of English fiction, with an honourable ancestry through such disparate figures as Wells and Hardy, Dickens and Jane Austen to Henry Fielding
Tribune
