Description

When a 200-hundred-year-old body turns up in a bog near her home, Jane resurrects a local legend that Fletcher Christian, Bounty mutineer and also a native of Jane’s village, made it home secretly from Pitcairn and told his story -- the “true” story of the mutiny -- to his old buddy Wordsworth. As an added pleasure, much of the story is set in the grandeur of the Lake District, described with a poet’s eye.

Wordsworth specialist Jane Gresham, herself a native of the Lake District, feels compelled to discover once and for all whether the manuscript ever existed - and whether it still exists today. It seemed to go off the rails a bit towards the end — difficult to juggle all those characters and storylines — and tailed away to a somewhat flat ending, but the action kept me engaged. Etsy’s 100% renewable electricity commitment includes the electricity used by the data centres that host Etsy.

With a feminist, socially conscious spin, McDermid (The Distant Echo) vividly contrasts marginal subsistence in London's dismal Marshpool neighborhood with the Lake District's bucolic lifestyle.

The Gaelic Books Council (Comhairle nan Leabhraichean) is the lead organisation with responsibility for supporting Scottish Gaelic authors and publishers, and for raising the profile and reach of Scottish Gaelic books in Scotland and internationally. Lo bueno es que se lee rápido, yo lo intercalé con otra lecturas y ha sido bastante entretenido, pero ya digo, para mi gusto le sobran páginas. She doesn’t know that she’s racing her unscrupulous ex-lover Jake Hartnell and her brother Matthew, a resentful local schoolmaster, for the poem. Though this was an interesting plot line I did get a bit bored with the jumping around between the fictional characters and the historical characters.Jane Gresham, native of a small village in the Lake District, is an impoverished graduate scholar specializing in William Wordsworth, a local boy.
