When he travelled with a donkey in the Cévennes mountains of south-central France in the 1870s, Robert Louis Stevenson took a revolver with him, in case the locals were unfriendly. In her new novel, Rose Tremain vividly evokes the same verdant and recalcitrant region. At the heart of her story are a French brother and sister, Aramon and Audrun, born after the second world war: the progeny of a generation traumatised by loss and accusations of collaboration with German occupiers. By the time the siblings reach late middle age in the early 21st century, when the novel is set, "thousands of Cévenol people had seemed to forget their role as caretakers of the land. Diseases came to the trees. The vine terraces crumbled. The rivers silted up. And nobody seemed to notice or care." In the subsequent books that Tremain wrote in her writing career, she moved away from her intense focus on a single or a couple of characters. The 1989 book, Restoration, provides a historical narrative of many layers based on the interconnected lives of several characters during the time of Charles II. This book was adapted into a movie in 1995. Tremain’s 1992 book called Sacred Country explores the adventures of a girl named Mary Ward, who is made to think that she is a boy from a very young age. Tremain was awarded the CBE in 2007 and she also holds an FRSL.

[6] There are no new stories, only new ways of telling them. This isn't even a new way of telling an old, tired, and frankly quite offensive story. I will not scruple from spoilers from this sentence forward. Stop reading now if you want, despite my urgent advice, to read this tiresome bilge. THRILLING...a terrific book, accomplished in its poised, imaginative storytelling and its vivid, sensual rendering of landscape and character, emotion and memory' The Times
