![]() Rating: - A well crafted read . . .Alan Garner's quartet of novellas follows a working class family through four generations in Cheshire, (northern England). The stories are written in regional dialect, however, they are very accesible and enjoyable. Garner is, primarily, a writer of children's literature and it is perhaps, therefore, no surprise that his stories focus on the child characters in each generation. A little serious and quaint, however, the stories are engaging and intensely well crafted. |
