Synopsis
Peter Davies recreates the sounds, sights and smells of rural Shropshire after the Second World War. It was a time of simple pleasure and innocent discovery, enthusiasm as well as sadness, encompassing the poignancy of young love and the tragic death of Peter’s father. His youth was populated by characters as colourful as John the Waggoner and as engaging as Lisbet the Danish visitor who played the cello. His recollections are lyrical and heartfelt but conveyed without sentimentality in an affectionate but discerning recreation of adolescence.
