A classic of 20th-century Welsh literature is given a contemporary treatment in this new translation of Y Byw sy'n Cysgu. Set in a tight-knit Welsh-speaking community at a time when separation, adultery, and divorce carried huge social stigmas, this novel is full of insight into human character and changing social mores, reflecting the influences of Chekhov and Maupassant on the author's response to the erosion of youth's certainties.

I had expected a tale of misery and troubles, and in a way it is, but the strength and sympathy of the main characters make sure the book never becomes weepy or overly emotional.
As always with Kate Roberts, her characters come to life very quickly and seem to be real people. Combined with her excellent storytelling, this makes for a great read. IIt's not often that a classic goes down so easily ( )
