Krátky popis
J. L. Carr's beautiful portrayal of the countryside and the healing
it brings, in an irresistible Little Clothbound Classics edition
designed by Coralie Bickford-Smith'One of the best books I've ever
read' Richard Osman'Unlike anything else in modern English
literature' D.J. Taylor, SpectatorA damaged survivor of the First
World War, Tom Birkin finds refuge in the quiet village church of
Oxgodby where he is to spend the summer uncovering a huge medieval
wall-painting. Immersed in the peace and beauty of the countryside
and the unchanging rhythms of village life he experiences a sense
of renewal and belief in the future. Now an old man, Birkin looks
back on the idyllic summer of 1920, remembering a vanished place of
blissful calm, untouched by change, a precious moment he has
carried with him through the disappointments of the years. Adapted
into a film starring Colin Firth, Natasha Richardson and Kenneth
Branagh, A Month in the Country traces the slow revival of the
primeval rhythms of life so cruelly disorientated by the Great War.
