Reviews

"I read The Hungry Hills with pleasure...Not only a good read but a vivid picture of the coalfield. All the misery and class division are there but so are the warmth and courage of the people. You'll believe you are there." Denise Robertson "My children are unfed, the clothes unwashed, ironing undone ... This is a wonderful book - if you don't mind loosing sleep as you read by torchlight into the night, do get this book." The Miscarriage Association "Truly a novel for saga lovers ... weaving together the lives of her many characters with compassion, skill and affection." Northern Echo "An unforgettable saga of life in the 1920's" Worcester Evening News "When Janet MacLeod Trotter writes about the North East she knows what she is talking about ... set in the Durham coalfields, her latest novel is full of warmth and courage and tales of class differences." Sunderland Echo
