If you liked Sarum, try "I Am England" and "That Near and Distant Place",
By Sammy Madison (USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: That Near and Distant Place (Hardcover)
"That Near and Distant Place" is the sequel to "I Am England". These books tell the story of a place in England through thousands of years in time, similar to the novel "Sarum". I liked these books more than "Sarum", however. They are shorter, sweeter, and more magical. The storyteller, a wounded WWII pilot, is the descendent in spirit of a long line of storytellers who lived in his beloved little village. He possesses a magical native memory of his place, and tells about different people who lived on the land, people related to him and each other from generation to generation. Both of these books are really magical and teach the reader about the past. If you enjoyed this book, also try reading "Puck of Pook's Hill" and "Rewards and Fairies" by Rudyard Kipling. They share a sense of the magic of the English countryside and the parade of history.
