Review
A modern-day Brief Encounter Daily Express Both lyrical and real, light and darkly full of yearnings for a profound and lifelong love Good Housekeeping Barker is drawn repeatedly to the wheeling desolation of the Norfolk coast - this vivid evocation leaps off the page, as do the delightful snapshots revealing the hot-breathed collision of family life Independent An insightful, highly readable novel Daily Express Barker gathers confidence and power with each novel, and Poppyland is a rich, confident and emotionally convincing piece of writing Sunday Times

Paperback. Condition: Very Good. POPPYLAND is a love story about two people who fall for each other through a series of coincidences. Ryder James meets Grace Hart the night her exhibition of paintings opens inCopenhagen. Both of them are loners, damaged by tragedy in their lives, both sceptical about love. But they have a connection that can't be broken, which takes them from their separate lives to Norfolk, where they both end up at the same time, bound together by a family event that neither of them knew the other was connected with. Romantic, elegiac, absorbing and quixotic, this love story for difficult people is a testament to the power of attraction. It's about the sea and land, about the past and how it shapes our futures, about how we find the right person to be with - a truly universal story. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged. Seller Inventory # GOR001339979
