Cider With Rosie

The classic evocative tale of an idyllic childhood in the English countryside

Cider with Rosie is a wonderfully vivid memoir of childhood in a remote Cotswold village, a village before electricity or cars, a timeless place on the verge of change. Growing up amongst the fields and woods and characters of the place, Laurie Lee depicts a world that is both immediate and real and belongs to a now-distant past.

‘Remains as fresh and full of joy and gratitude for youth and its sensations as when it first appeared. It sings in the memory’ Sunday Times

This edition takes this classic tale one step further and includes superb illustrations. Although Cider With Rosie was first published in 1959, this edition came out in 1984. It is beautifully presented and is a collectors volume and is one-of-a-kind.
