The Flickering Candle This book is not for the faint hearted, it has body and human feeling well endowed. Set in the early 1900s this saga tells the story of the way of life lived in a coal mining industrial village in Central England. A coal mining community with gritty people and small pleasures. Their loves, pleasures, and disappointments as their daily life unfolds. One of the characters goes to work at Danbury Hall, and finds it hard to be a skivvy maid, she has no option. She has two companions the experiences of these two girls are laid to a bare description of each individual, for good and bad. This story is bare to the bones of intent with description and colour. Sex enters the scene, followed by tears and sweat. A different kind of love and longing is developed especially in the Quarry Yard scenes. Sweet and sour are in the mix all played by individual characters. Each one you will find different in colour and humour. Hard are the times that undulate between the pages, and soft are the deep emotions as they become known to the reader. This book has fire, life, death, love, hate romance, promise, and ultimate satisfaction. Between the pages you will find yourself drawn in, so that the script becomes a scene in your own mind. A challenge you say? Read on say I. Sylvia Jackson Clark. 10.9.2014 Copy-write.
