Excerpt from Sent to Coventry
That won't take you into society I am sure no one will come to this poor place.
So much the worse for them. Look, mother, at these roses over the porch, and if you listen we can just distinguish the sound of the stream coming from the upper combe. Let's put a good face on our mis fortunes.

Excerpt from Sent to Coventry
"Of course people who have failed can't expect much," said Mrs. Leworthy, slowly gazing round the sitting-room of Combeside Farm. "It is very kind of Sir David Tracey to trust your father with this place. I am so delicate and your brother is a cripple, so we have only you, Byrd, to depend upon."
"Beggars can't pick and choose, answered Byrd Leworthy, laughing. Father is really a good farmer though he is a gentleman, but no talent can change the weather or alter the price of corn. At all events, here we shall loose Sir David's money and not our own," and Byrd's merriment would have made any one less doleful than Mrs. Leworthy laugh in company.
"It's a dreadful change, and this is a poor sort of place for "
"But such a glorious country, mother dear."

Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the life of an upper-middle-class family who have faced severe financial difficulty, forcing them to relocate from their comfortable city life to a nearly isolated farm provided by a friend of the family. Byrd Leworthy, a strong-willed, spirited young lady, is the fulcrum of the story. As the family settles into their new life, Byrd grapples with the feelings of loneliness and boredom that accompany their transition to rural isolation. She longs for a more fulfilling existence, with intellectual and social stimulation. Fate takes an unexpected turn when Byrd encounters a mysterious man, Kilian Tresiddar, on the rugged shores of Seawater. Curiosity soon intertwines with attraction as Byrd learns that Kilian is the brother of the reclusive Countess who has recently taken up residence in the nearby castle. The story explores the emotional dynamics between Byrd, Kilian, and the Countess, revealing their hidden connections and unfulfilled longings. The novel deftly examines the themes of societal prejudice, the search for identity, and the transformative power of human connection.
