Precious Bane by Mary Webb
This is the story of us all at Sarn, of Mother and Gideon and me, and Jancis, and Wizard Beguildy, and the two or three other folk that lived in those parts, that I did set out to tell. There were but a few, and maybe always will be, for there's a discouragement about the place. It may be the water lapping, year in and year out--everywhere you look and listen, water; or the big trees waiting and considering on your right hand and on your left; or the unbreathing quiet of the place, as if it was created but an hour gone, and not created for us.
Margaret Webb is an author, a long-distance runner, and a volunteer running coach for poor children. Magazines & tabloids such as Sports Illustrated Women and the Globe and Mail have featured her work.
