Battles at Thrush Green | Miss Read
3 posts | 4 read | 1 to read
Feelings are running high in the Cotswold village of Thrush Green. The rectors plan for the neglected churchyard doesnt meet with universal approval; there is a clash of personalities at the local school; and someone has returned to the village after an absence of fifty years.

Battles at Thrush Green | Miss Read

Pickpick

Friction with the new teacher at the village school, disagreements over maintenance of the churchyard, and a charge of dangerous driving in this visit to the Cotswolds in the early 1970s. Lovely nature-writing and now 50 years later, a real nostalgia-inducing read.

CarolynM What gorgeous roses😍 2y
rwmg @CarolynM They are called Golden Shower roses. They are mentioned quite a lot in the book. 2y
batsy This sounds lovely. I've only heard good things about the book. 2y

AT a quarter to eight one fine September morning, Harold Shoosmith leant from his bedroom window and surveyed the shining face of Thrush Green.

I tried to read Child 44 and was so horrified by 1933 USSR that I ran to the ‘70s Cotswolds. Balm for the soul. Albert Piggott‘s cat was just adopted by Miss Fogerty‘s infant class for the afternoon because the cat seemed hungry. The starving cat in Ch. 1 in Child 44 was being hunted for food until its hunter was killed for food. 😱
I‘m a wimp. The main “battles” at Thrush Green are over Dotty‘s driving and rearranging the churchyard. 😌 #missread
