Produktbeschreibung

Dew On The Grass, first published in 1934, was Eiluned Lewis' first novel and immediately enjoyed both popular success and critical acclaim. A semi-autobiographical account of childhood in rural Montgomeryshire in the early years of the twentieth century, Lewis' novel focuses on Lucy, nine years old, dreamy, accident -prone and acutely alive to the world around her. Lewis' prose is a delight: sensuous, evocative and nostalgic. Here is a book which distils all the joys and agonies of childhood and seems to speak directly to us all of our own lost selves.

Autorenporträt

Eiluned Lewis (1900-1979) was born and bred in the Welsh countryside near the banks of 'the young Severn', so vividly described in the novel. She was one of four children of Montgomeryshire landowner Hugh Lewis and his wife Eveline. The writer J M Barrie was a family friend and frequent visitor to their home. Lewis went on to forge a successful career as a journalist and wrote two more novels.
