Book Description

Carrie Trimble has to leave the familiar Terrace and go into service in Penzance. But her connections with a Newlyn artist prove hard to forget. Even when she meets Ernie, and has to adapt to the life of a clayer's wife over at St Austell, Carrie always keeps Penvarris in her heart - and the Frenchman she used to meet on the cliff-path there.

This review is from: The Tinner's Daughter (Hardcover)

Although I am not generally a reader of historical / romantic fiction, I enjoyed this book a great deal. A compulsive read, it is very difficult to put down, giving a great sense of imvolvement with the characters. The interest of the book is enhanced by the well-researched details of life in the past, and (most importantly) how these details affected ordinary people. Thoroughly recommended.
