Cider with Rosie

An alternative cover edition for this ISBN can be found here. A childhood, an era and a landscape - evoked in one of the best-loved autobiographies of the century. The England of Cider with Rosie is one 'of silence. of white roads, rutted by hooves and cartwheels, innocent of oil and petrol'. It is the rich, sensuous world of Lauree Lee's childhood and youth in a remote Cotswold village, a world that has mostly vanished. Described by H. E. Bates as 'a prose poem that flashes and winks like a prism', this loving and intimate record stands as both testament and elegy.
