Description

Louie Kirkup dreams of a better future in the hard and dangerous mining village of Whitton Grange. With her sick mother and large family relying on her, she fears becoming a spinster drudge until she meets 'Red' Sam Ritson, who inspires her to take action. As tensions rise and the General Strike looms, Louie's life becomes increasingly complicated. Her brother Eb begins an affair with Eleanor, the mine owner's wife, while Sam is locked in his battle for the miners against the ruthless Seward-Scott. With her unborn child at risk, Louie must stay strong for those she loves. Written with compassion and humour, The Hungry Hills is a vivid portrayal of two families living through the dramas of 1920s Britain.
