Ridge and Furrow

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.
