A miscellany of stories and poems about English history, including some very famous poems, and some... resolutely of their time, told through the medium of Puck and two small children. A sequel to Puck of Pook's hill, but most of the stories are standalone ( ) For my full, non-spoiler review: https://christianlovingbooks.blogspot.com/2018/10/rewards-and-fairies-review.htm... This didn't have the charm of Puck of Pook's Hill although it also lacked the kind of overbearing sense of British imperialism that was so prevalent in Puck and led to some vaguely uncomfortable reading. I was glad to be with Una and Dan again, though. My British history chops are SORELY lacking. Ouch. There's a lot I don't know. I loved the chapters that took place in Philadelphia with the Seneca and Big Hand. If you like this - and Puck's as well, you should listen to the Peter Bellamy records that have the poems put to music. https://mainlynorfolk.info/peter.bellamy/records/oakashandthorn.html nessuna recensione | aggiungi una recensione
