About The Book
‘Living in our valley was like broad beans in a pod, so snug and enclosed and protective.’
Laurie Lee left his childhood home in the Cotswolds when he was nineteen, but it remained with him throughout his life, until, many years later, he returned for good.
In this never before published collection, Laurie Lee guides us through his home landscape around Slad in Gloucestershire, and the memories of his youth there. Down in the Valley bring to life the sights, sounds and traditions of his home — from his favourite pub, The Woolpack, summer bathing and winter skating on the village pond, the church through the seasons, learning the violin and playing jazz records in the privy on a wind-up gramophone.
Told with a warm sense of humour and a powerful sense of history, Down in the Valley brings us a picture of a vanished world.
