This novella has apparently been described by many critics as the author's crowning achievement in short fiction. I personally preferred Mr Harrison's Confession, though I can see why this more serious work is generally rated more highly. It is well written and presents a good portrayal of life on the Holman farm. But I found it curiously unemotionally engaging. It ended quite suddenly and I thought it felt almost more like a novel fragment than a novella. I discovered subsequently that further parts were planned but never written. ( ) A los diecisiete años, Paul Manning llega a la pequeña población de Eltham como ayudante del ingeniero del ferrocarril. La vida pausada que allí descubre, regida por el calendario de las labores del campo, y el conocimiento de su prima Phillis, una muchacha que le aventaja en altura, cultura y sensibilidad, le iniciarán en un nuevo mundo en el que se adentra con respeto y fascinación. *** ENG/ITA *** Read by Elizabeth Klett, excellent LV narrator, this is a quaint, melancholic novella about a young, intelligent girl coming of age in a man's world. She is too clever for her cousin I found myself drawn to this portait even with its sometimes melodramatic twists and slow pace. ************** Il narratore è un giovane, che dopo ver conosciuto bella e intelligente cugina, Phillis, e esseresi affezionato a lei come a una sorella Bellissima novella, passo lento, qualche angolo di melodramma vittoriano Audiolibro in inglese letto da E.

Lauded by critics as one of the most nuanced accounts of adolescence and young adulthood to have been penned in the nineteenth century, Cousin Phillis also offers a glimpse into the lives of working-class English farmers and the deeply intertwined extended family relationships that were a fact of life during the era.
