The first of my #AuldLangSpine books from @Mitch finished, and it was a good one!
A young post-war school-leaver sets out from Durham to spend the summer exploring, before heading back down the pit. But his meeting and friendship with Dulcie Piper changes everything- for both of them - as he starts to see there‘s more to the world than his village, and she faces past tragedies.
Beautiful and evocative - I‘d gladly read more by Benjamin Myers.
