Bound together by blood ties, Martha, Jack and Shanco live on a farm in west Wales where their lives unfold in the eerie half-presence of their dead parents. Glimmers of understanding punctuate their relationship with one another, but unspoken animosity seems to be the most potent ingredient. A lament for the prizes and the price of nurturing a landscape: an antidote for anyone impatient with those who choose to stay in one place.
Martha, Jack & Shanco is a book where the land itself, the beasts of the farm, and the raucous crows animate the narrative. The climate, the dark, the harshness of country life: all are woven into the fabric of a raw and timeless story.
