"The Stars Look Down" was A.J. Cronin's fourth novel, published in
1935, and this tale of a North country mining family was a great
favourite with his readers.
Robert Fenwick is a miner, and so are his three sons. His wife is
proud that all her four men go down the mines. But David, the
youngest, is determined that somehow he will educate himself and
work to ameliorate the lives of his comrades who ruin their health
to dig the nation's coal. It is, perhaps, a typical tale of the era
in which it was written - there were many novels about coal mining,
but Cronin, a doctor turned author, had a gift for storytelling,
and in his time wrote several very popular and successful novels.
In the magnificent narrative tradition of "The Citadel," "Hatter's
Castle" and Cronin's other novels, "The Stars Look Down" is
deservedly remembered as a classic of its age.
