Flora Thompson’s immortal trilogy, containing “Lark Rise”, “Over To Candleford” and “Candleford Green”, is a heartwarming portrayal of country life at the close of the 19th century. This story of three closely related Oxfordshire communities - a hamlet, the nearby village and a small market town - is based on the author’s experiences during childhood and youth. It chronicles May Day celebrations and forgotten children’s games, the daily lives of farmworkers and craftsmen, friends and relations - all painted with a gaiety and freshness of observation that make this trilogy an evocative and sensitive memorial to Victorian rural England.

This series (and torrent) consists of the following books:

1 - Lark Rise

Length: 9 hrs and 16 mins

Lark Rise is Flora Thompson’s childhood memories of a north Oxfordshire village, the people who lived and worked in it, and a way of life that has totally disappeared. The story is built around Laura and her brother Edmund, through whose eyes are seen ‘old Sally’, whose grandfather built the house she lived in before the enclosure of the heathland, children’s games, the interaction of village and gentry, and the way in which the seasons governed life.

2 - Over to Candleford

Length: 5 hrs and 20 mins

In the little hamlet of Lark Rise times are changing and Laura is growing up. Although she must attend the nearby village school, she would far rather read and make up stories in her head.

Real-life excitement comes, however, when she and her beloved younger brother Edmund are allowed to walk on their own to the grand market town of Candleford to stay with their relatives one summer. There, Laura discovers the joys of the shops, the ways of boy-talk with her cousins and the secret world of ‘Bookworms Ltd’ with her Uncle Tom, before an offer arrives that will determine her future.

3 - Candleford Green

Length: 5 hrs and 55 mins

Now in her early teens, Laura moves to the village of Candleford Green to work in the post office under the tutelage of her cousin Dorcas Lane, and grow into womanhood.

In Candleford Green, new ideas and new ways are coming in from the outside world, from Dorcas’ famous telegraph machine to the scandalous sight of ladies riding bicycles. There are also new people entering Laura’s life: the curmudgeonly old servant Zillah, the grand Sir Thomas, the Irish Harvesters and the ardent young gamekeeper Philip White.

As Laura adjusts to this world, the traditions and ways of her country childhood seem further and further away - and a different future beckons.
