In the marshy region of Fen Country (East Anglia), Tom Crick, a history teacher, abandons the official syllabus to tell his students the story of his family over some 240 years. Memory, past and human nature intertwine in a plot with eels, beer, madness and a family romance with tragic overtones.
Originally published in 1983, shortlisted for the Booker Prize and winner of the Guardian Fiction Award and the Winifred Holtby Memorial Prize.
For readers of literary fiction and British historical novels, with a narrative that combines family history, memory and landscape.
