The World of Poldark
The World of Poldark | Emma Marriott
12 posts | 2 read | 2 to read
Emma Marriott's The World of Poldark explores the characters, the compelling stories and the era that Winston Graham - and the television series - set out to recreate, the England that Ross Poldark returned to from the American War of Independence. England, and especially Cornwall, was then marked by social unrest and a deep division between rich and poor. It was a place of tin mines and shipwrecks, of new money versus old, of harsh justice and great kindness. And, above all, it was a place that inspired Winston Graham's beloved novels. Amid the turmoil of eighteenth-century Cornwall, Ross comes back to a home in ruins, his father dead and his childhood sweetheart engaged to another - his own heart as battered as the country around him. Experience the great houses and the glorious landscapes and follow the cast of characters as their stories play out against the backdrop of Cornwall's wild beauty, through interviews with the actors, behind the scenes insights and in-depth information on costumes, props and locations. Packed full of behind the scenes photographs, The World of Poldark is the ultimate guide to the popular series.

So much fun getting a sneak peek at the final season of Poldark thanks to a donor event at our public TV station! I was not too cool to get my picture with Ross. This is going to be a great season.

Ericalambbrown Love that show! 5y

1. Adian Turner! I'm on the second season of Poldark and I'm obsessed!
2. Yes, but I prefer to have the windows open weather permitting.
3. Reading or watching TV with my hubby
4. Heights and spiders 🕷️
5. Yes! They're like movies. The first book I wrote was based on a dream. 🤩

MinDea Doon?!? 6y
LorieL @MinDea Actually my first book was a Revolutionary Time travel. I'm planning to release it later this year. ☺️ Doon was inspired by the musical Brigadoon! 6y
MinDea Ooohhhh! So cool! I am intrigued! 😀 6y
rubyslippersreads Excellent choice for question 1. 😍 6y

A look behind the scenes of Series 1 of the new Poldark TV adaptation, as well as historical background on major events that took place during the first two books (the source material for the first season). Some very nice photos, although no shirtless Aidan Turner, alas 😂😂

#Cringeworthy #ReadingResolutions

The Reverend Osborne Whitworth, in Poldark, is super cringe worthy to the point your skin crawls when he‘s onscreen! 😬

CoverToCoverGirl Eeks! 7y
CrowCAH @CoverToCoverGirl I know! The actor plays his part well. 7y

Driving home from work today and the cloudy sky (inset picture) reminded me of the Poldark opening scenery! I heart ❤️ this show!!! Have to wait till next year for season four!

Do you agree?

CoverToCoverGirl Big sigh.. be still my heart ♥️ 7y
Claireluana I love Poldark! Was underwhelmed by the end of season 3, but still love 7y
DivineDiana I do! But agree with @Claireluana about season 3 finale. 7y
CrowCAH @CoverToCoverGirl I agree! 😍 7y
CrowCAH @Claireluana @DivineDiana omg, yes, but she did say she wanted a day where she could be another, with no questions; she keep her secrets and he can keep his. Now the looong wait till next year and season four. 7y

#BookMail 😊 Loving the first half of the first book in a series means that you are obliged to order all 12 immediately and without hesitation....right? This is entirely normal and reasonable behaviour, isn't it? God help my TBR!

julesG Absolutely normal and understandable behaviour. Did the same, just as eBooks. 8y
LauraBrook Yes, this is completely normal! I've only ordered the first half of this series, and am waiting for a little more "fun" money to get the rest. The series has to match!!!!!! 8y
LauraAndTaraAndBooks @julesG @LauraBrook 😂 glad to know I'm not alone! And God, yes, physical copies absolutely have to have matching covers! What kind of monster would have a mismatched series?! I shudder even to think of such a heinous crime against bookshelves 😂😂😂 (edited) 8y

Zelma Yup, totally normal. Otherwise, how will you binge read? 8y
CrowCAH Love the reboot TV starring Aiden Turner! And I adore how your whole collection of books matches!!!! 8y
ErinEBW Beautiful. I am having a hard time getting through Ross Poldark, though. I've been working through it for almost two years. 8y

This book sadly lacks the photographic evidence of why Poldark first came to mind for #muscles. Still, I can't resist. #AprilBookShowers

If you follow me on Twitter, you'll know about my recent obsession with the BBC drama Poldark. It's honestly one of the best dramas I've watched recently. This book dives into the making of Series 1 and I'm excited to read it.
