Description

Peculiar Ground is a breathtakingly ambitious novel that explores the complexities of human relationships and the power of walls to both divide and confine.

Set in two distinct eras, the story follows the lives of those living within an enclosed world, Wychwood, where secrets are kept and hidden behind ornate facades. As the Berlin wall comes down, a new wave of change threatens to disrupt the status quo, while within Wychwood, a young girl's observations of love, loss, and longing set the stage for a dramatic confrontation.

This beautiful and timely novel weaves together themes of game keepers and witches, agitators and aristocrats, young love and the pathos of aging, to create a rich tapestry of human experience that will resonate with readers long after the final page is turned.
