Precious Bane by Mary Webb

5.0

An absolutely beautiful story written in a dreamy, lyrical style. This book evoked such emotions within me, touching my heart so deeply. I smiled, I cried, I seethed for the characters in this book, who are each written with such life in them, whether for good or for bad. There are tender, kind moments just as there are cruel and horrific moments, balanced so perfectly upon the picturesque nature backdrop. Now, I must go and tell everyone close to me to read this book.
