Rezensionen

James Clarke has written a cinematic novel of such heart, desperation, and as artfully arranged as a Renaissance painting. It is a fearless portrait of a fearful time, replete with moments of wonder, love, pain, anger, and hope. The Litten Path is about the miners' strike, it is also about the human cost of a system that is still spiralling wildly out of control. Both an important historical record and a warning of what's to come.
