There aren't enough books like this one

I read this novel when it turned up in a batch of old books someone passed along to us many years ago. It shares the quality of some of A. J. Cronin's novels, of seeming to be only a quiet story about obscure people, but lingering in the memory by virtue of the interest we feel in the characters. I'm delighted to see that it has been reissued.
