This book is a little slice of life from a provincial English village told with a loose plot centering on the everyday events that befall its inhabitants. While very charming and funny, the book also contains profoundly sad elements -- regrets, loses, follies, and traumas that characterise the human experience. It is as lighthearted as it is serious, in its sweet Victorian way.
Graphic: Death, Grief, and Classism
Moderate: Terminal illness, Death of parent, and Chronic illness
Minor: Colonisation and Physical abuse
