Description
Set in the turbulent South Wales Valleys of the 1830s, this novel blends personal narrative with a vivid account of how an industrial, largely English-speaking society took shape. A traveling harpist arrives with music and livelihood, only to find himself drawn into a bitter industrial dispute where loyalties are tested and every choice carries consequence. As the conflict escalates, the story explores power, class struggle, and the fragile bonds between ordinary people caught in forces far larger than themselves. Written with the immediacy of lived experience and the sweep of social history, it captures both the human cost of upheaval and the cultural rhythms that endure amid betrayal and change.
