Freya's review
(read Mr W Rakespeare's review) Wold is a moving love story set in the unique environment of the Yorkshire Wolds. Two young people attempt to carve a life for themselves, despite their families, and the sometimes harsh environment. The tale is carefully honed into a series of snapshots of beautiful simplicity, sprinkled with searing humour and mysticism. This book is quite the opposite of novels thick as a loaf of bread - in its short, poetic span, so much is said, so much unsaid. But it cannot fail to change the outlook of any reader that dares to open their soul, as the author has done so bravely.
Reading this book has been a unique experience ! At times I laughed out loud. Writing of beautiful simplicity and integrity.
I would recommend this book to anyone who isn't too narrow-minded ! To anyone who loves nature, and love itself.
Reviewer: Freya Smith
Mr W Rakespeare's review Wold by Paul Judges is a story set in the unique environment of the Yorkshire Wolds and coast.
It follows the passionate relationship of two young adults, living closely with a sometimes harsh environment. This is a funny and original book with all kinds of peculiar insight and simple beauty.
I would heartily recommend this book to anyone who's overdosed on TV and supermarket shopping! Here is the antidote.
