Description

A classic work of rural magic realism from one of Britain's greatest children's novelists.Through four interconnected fables of a way of living in rural England that has now disappeared, Alan Garner vividly brings to life a landscape situated on the outskirts of industrial Manchester.Smiths and chandlers, steeplejacks and quarrymen, labourers and artisans: they all live and work hand in hand with the seasons, the elements and the land.

There is a mutual respect and a knowledge of the magical here that has somehow, somewhere been lost to us.

These fables beautifully recapture and restore that lost world in simple, searching prose.
