GoodBookStall Review:
If you are familiar with Ronald Blythe’s writing, you will welcome this new collection of pieces first published in the Church Times as ‘Word from Wormingford’. His descriptions of his home and surroundings, his activities at home and away, are written with such a lovely turn of phrase, I read some parts over and over again. Peppered throughout are memories of writers and artists long gone, of stories of locals and of his visitors, all making for a warm and comfortable feeling as you absorb his love for people and ‘his’ countryside. If you are new to Ronald Blythe’s writing, you have a treat in store.
Available in paperback at £8.99, Autumn 2007, ISBN 978-1-853-11833-3
