Everything about Cumbrian Trilogy totally explained
The Cumbrian Trilogy comprises three novels by
Melvyn Bragg, published between
1969 and
1980.
The story is set predominantly in Thurston (Bragg's name for
Wigton), from the
1920s to the
1970s, and follows the lives of John Tallentire, his son Joseph, and his grandson Douglas. These three characters are central to the novels
The Hired Man,
A Place in England, and
Kingdom Come, respectively.
As the family saga unfolds, Bragg sets the constant family characteristics of the protagonists against the flow of historical change.
