Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. Dust Jacket Condition: Very Good. Jacket after a wallpaper design by William Morris (illustrator). 1st Edition. First edition, first impression. Some edge wear to top and bottom of jacket and spine, corners slightly rubbed, spine slightly browned. Not price clipped (£2.25), no inscriptions, internally clean tight and square, contemporary newspaper review tipped in, overall a vg+ copy. 186pp. Susan Hill said of this book 'the events and characters in the novel are wholly invented. The time is not the present and the death was very different. But the emotions were real. They were mine and I could never have written the book if I had not experienced them. It is set in an unspecified past, but is probably somewhere between the end of the first World War in 1918, and the beginning of the Second in 1939'. Seller Inventory # 004857

This copy still has its publisher's promotional band. Laid in is a cutting from The Times 24/1/74 with a review of this title International postal rates are calculated on a book weighing 1 Kilo, in cases where the book weighs more than 1 Kilo increased postal rates will be quoted, where the book weighs less then postage will be reduced accordingly. Set in a rural English village, In the Springtime of the Year is an astonishingly acute novel built around young Ruth Bryce's struggle to deal with the sudden and accidental death of her husband, Ben. Suddenly alone, Ruth must cope not only with Ben's death but also with his family who view her with suspicion and hostility. Her sole companion is Ben's fourteen-year-old brother who understands Ruth's quiet determination to emerge from this tragedy with her integrity and independence intact. A young woman's ability to collect herself, by herself, in the face of oppressive circumstances, is the force behind this novel. Told in a voice that is both honest and unsparing, it is an important addition to the oeuvre of a writer of real scope and power. Ref YY 6. Seller Inventory # 034150
