Gone to Earth (1917) unfolds in the Shropshire borderland, where Hazel Woodus-wild, music-haunted child of the hills-keeps faith with the nonhuman world even as she is caught between the earnest curate Edward Marston and the predatory squire Jack Reddin. Webb fuses folk belief, Biblical cadence, and sensuous nature-writing, letting dialect and topography shape consciousness.

Produktbeschreibung
Gone to Earth (1917) unfolds in the Shropshire borderland, where Hazel Woodus-wild, music-haunted child of the hills-keeps faith with the nonhuman world even as she is caught between the earnest curate Edward Marston and the predatory squire Jack Reddin. Webb fuses folk belief, Biblical cadence, and sensuous nature-writing, letting dialect and topography shape consciousness. The vixen Hazel shelters, and the hunt that shadows it, serve as emblem and engine, binding eros and cruelty within a Georgian pastoral that strains toward psychological and ecological critique. Mary Gladys Meredith Webb, Shropshire-born poet-novelist, wrote from close knowledge of hedgerow life, folklore, and village piety; chronic illness and inwardness honed her exact observation. Her rural upbringing and fascination with hymnody inform Hazel's syncretic spirituality, while a post-Victorian skepticism tests the consolations of respectability and the Church amid wartime disillusion. Readers of Hardy and Lawrence, and anyone drawn to rigorous nature-writing and searching moral drama, will find this novel indispensable: a tragic romance and an uncompromising meditation on animal life, female autonomy, and the peril-and necessity-of remaining true to one's ground. Quickie Classics summarizes timeless works with precision, preserving the author's voice and keeping the prose clear, fast, and readable-distilled, never diluted. Enriched Edition extras: Introduction · Synopsis · Historical Context · Brief Analysis · 4 Reflection Q&As · Editorial Footnotes.
