Welcome to Gentian Hill. Elizabeth Goudge’s tour de force exploring with her usual skill the themes that always touch the heart: endurance, courage, and love. Meet Stella Sprigg, adopted daughter of the Sprigg family and follow her story of love and hope in a time where is hardly exists. Gentian Hill seems almost fairy tale in nature, where the story of the two young protagonists at the time of the Napoleonic wars mirrors an older tale in the same location. In her author's note, Goudge says that this is the retelling of the legend of St. Michael's Chapel at Torquay. The story is a retelling of an old legend of a shipwrecked mariner who became a hermit and built the chapel high up the steep side of a hill. A place to pray for those who face the perils of the sea. Elizabeth Goudge's deep love for the Devon countryside is obvious with her beautiful, often mystical descriptions of Nature which she balances with the down to earth telling of daily routine on a farm.
