A novel by beloved national treasure Melvyn Bragg

Produktbeschreibung

'Brilliant'
Daily Telegraph

'The book is exciting . . . a pleasure to be remembered'
Financial Times

At once a love story and a portrayal of innocence brutally curtailed, Josh Lawton charts the rites of passage of a young Cumbrian farm worker and keen fell runner - an exceptionally good man whose very integrity proves his undoing.

'With this novel, Melvyn Bragg has established his place in English letters to the extent that his Cumbria is as potent a literary region as Hardy's Wessex, Lawrence's Midlands and Housman's Shropshire'
New Statesman
