Volume fourteen of A Chronicle of Ancient Sunlight. Beginning in
the winter of 1940/1 and ending with the uneasy 'sunrise' of peace
in 1945, this volume sees Phillip Maddison striving idealistically
to hold a balance while lamenting the division and possible total
ruin of Europe, as he copes with the day-to-day problems of running
the East Anglian farm he has wrested from virtual wilderness. The
pattern of everyday living in those years is lovingly evoked: the
bomber-haunted nights, the petty profiteering and gossip of country
life - all essential, but often unrecorded, elements of the wartime
scene. 'The sequence will stand, at the end, as a massive emotional
record.' Guardian
