The story of three closely-related Oxfordshire communities -- a hamlet, a village, and a town -- and the memorable cast of characters who people them. Based on Thompson's own experiences as a child and young woman, it is keenly observed and beautifully narrated, quiet and evocative.

Werk-Informationen

Landliebe von Flora Thompson (1945)

  1. 50
    Cranford von Elizabeth Gaskell (Staramber)
    Staramber: In Over To Candleford Laura reads Cranford to her Uncle. Although separated by time they both contain everyday descriptions of provincial British life by – largely – passive narrators.
  2. 30
    Ein Baum wächst in Brooklyn von Betty Smith (atimco)
    atimco: Both stories are semi-autobiographical and tell the story of a young, sensitive girl coming of age in a poor community. The heroines have similar family structures (attractive, hardworking mother, generally absent/weak father, younger brother who fits into his surroundings better than his older sister). The historical setting is very important to both works and almost acts as a character in its own right.… (mehr)
  3. 10
    Jenseits von Afrika von Isak Dinesen (Staramber)
    Staramber: Althought the topics differ both are similarly structured and fascinating
  4. 10
    Das Land der spitzen Tannen von Sarah Orne Jewett (atimco)
    atimco: Both are narrated by a semi-outsider and share a quiet, contemplative, sometimes humorous tone. Both authors evidently desire to use their fiction to capture a disappearing (or disappeared) way of life.
  5. 00
    Die Liebe der Prudence Sarn von Mary Webb (KayCliff)
  6. 11
    The Country Child von Alison Uttley (patchygirl)
    patchygirl: Many lovely books come up in the recommendations for Lark Rise to Candleford, including The Country Child. For me, the latter is such a particularly good pair for Lark Rise that I just want to give it a special mention.

What an absolutely charming read. It's not a memoir and not a novel but a series of recollections and stories of both the hamlet of Lark Rise and the small towns of Candleford and Candleford Green with some small through lines of the life of Laura Timmins but that doesn't really do it justice. It's about a time and place that was already changing rapidly and was completely gone by the time Thompson wrote her stories but she creates it so vividly. I read it after a re-watch of the TV series and it was fun to see the sentences or phrases that were teased into narratives but it is probably best to think of them as completely different things. I dipped into this over a few months and I always enjoyed it.

3.5. Leisurely jaunt through the past. I wasn't really expecting the show so I wasn't disappointed. ( )
  OutOfTheBestBooks | Sep 24, 2021 |
It was well-written, but not interesting enough to me to read all of the trilogy (only finished part 1).
However, for people interested in the time and place, it would be a good read.

What a lovely story. Through the trials of 2020, this book, along with the BBC TV adaption of it, simultaneously let my mind escape to another time and place and kept me grounded. I've never read anything like it- a sturdy but delicately carved social history of rural England in the final decades of the nineteenth century with a lacquer of fiction applied to it. One reason I picked it up was to learn about the world in which master craftsman Thomas Hardy fashioned Tess and Jude. I would recommend it equally to readers of history and historical fiction. ( )

Introduction by H. J. Massingham, 1944.
The hamlet stood on a gentle rise in the flat, wheat-growing north-east corner of Oxfordshire. We will call it Lark Rise because of the great number of skylarks which made the surrounding fields their springboard and nested on the bare earth between the rows of green corn.

I. Poor People's Houses.

And she herself did not really wish to become a member; she never did wish to do what everybody else was doing, which showed she had a contrary nature, she had often been told, but it was really because her thought and tastes ran upon different lines than those of the majority.
But have we any of us a free choice of our path in life, or are we driven on by destiny or by the demon within us into a path already marked out? Who can tell?
Her mother's judgement was usually sound, and she had often told her: 'You're not cut out for a pleasant, easy life. You think too much!'
