Ridge and Furrow continues the project, begun in the acclaimed Water and Sky, to chart in prose the voices of a seldom recorded people and place. This is a delicate portrayal of one family in rural Lincolnshire in the twentieth century as they struggle with war, poverty and the great changes in agriculture.
In his haunting debut, Water and Sky, published in 2014, Neil Sentance explored the history of his family and the landscape which shaped them. Ridge and Furrow continues the project to chart in prose the voices of a seldom recorded people and place. From the long shadows of war and want, to facing the great changes to rural life in the twentieth century, to first forays into a world beyond the flatlands of Lincolnshire, the book delicately portrays the dreams of lone, and often lonely, figures in one family's history. Ridge and Furrow melds memoir and fiction, place and nature writing, told with characteristic lyricism and muddy realism.
