Paperback or Softback. Condition: New. The Small Years. Book.

Condition: New.

Paperback. Condition: New. The Small Years was first published in June 1930 and printed three times in its first six months. In 1937 it was re-issued in a smaller pocket edition, and this went out of print during the war. This second edition, which was originally published in 1950, returned the text to its larger form. This is simply one man's account of what it meant to him to be a child - to be born and brought up at an unusual school in a remote and beautiful rurality; an account which, by all the evidence, clearly has power over its readers of inciting them to recover and live over again their own private memories of a great variety of childhoods. Mr Walter de la Mare's introduction to the first edition is retained, and the author's original map of the village is in its place once more.…

Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Neuware - 'The Small Years' is a lyrical and evocative memoir by Frank Kendon, capturing the essence of a childhood spent in the English countryside at the turn of the twentieth century. Through a series of vivid recollections, Kendon reconstructs the sights, sounds, and sensations of his early life in Kent, offering readers a poignant glimpse into a vanished world. The narrative focuses on the small, often overlooked details that define a child's universe-the textures of the landscape, the rhythms of nature, and the quiet dignity of rural life.The work is celebrated for its poetic prose and sensitive observation, transcending mere autobiography to become a timeless meditation on memory and the passage of time. Kendon's writing is marked by a deep affection for the landscape and a keen understanding of the wonder and innocence of youth. 'The Small Years' remains a classic of English pastoral literature, providing an intimate portrait of a boy's developing consciousness set against the backdrop of a traditional society. It stands as a significant contribution to the genre of nature writing and twentieth-century English literature, inviting readers to rediscover the beauty of the ordinary through the eyes of a child.This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important, and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it.
