Summary: What, no reviews for this oustanding book?
Comment: This book is absolutely lovely! I hate comparisons, just don't expect anything below the high standard of Dickens or Thakeray [Vanity Fair]. I think you may find this an easier read, though. The "Good Companions" are a 3rd rate theatre company comprised of an unusual mix of characters, each on their own unique passage through life that intersects with the forming of the "Good Companions". It is a story that is rich with humour, pathos and understanding. Priestly's characters are as real as any you may expect to meet in similar setting, with the exception of one or two purposely 'larger than life' who provide an enjoyable excess of colour and movement. It is the realistic and detailed portrayal of each individual's journey that gives the story it's robustness. A lot can be learnt from these characters and their particular era of fast-moving social change. A deeper longing for a "distant shore" resides in the soul of each main character and though unexpressed in words, it underpins their relationship with one another and drives the reader on to an exciting conclusion
