In 'If Winter Comes,' A. S. M. Hutchinson crafts a compelling narrative that navigates the challenges and moral complexities faced by its protagonist Mark Sabre in the post-World War I British society. The text is a vivid patchwork of social commentary and personal introspection, embroidered with Hutchinson's poignant prose and sharp observations, effectively encapsulating the disillusionment and shifting values of the time. The book's republication by DigiCat Publishing allows modern readers to access this significant yet underappreciated work, imbuing it with contemporary resonance while honoring its literary significance within the canon of early 20th-century British novels. A. S. M. Hutchinson was a masterful storyteller whose own experiences and observations of early 20th-century life undeniably shaped his literary creations. 'If Winter Comes,' possibly his most prominent novel, echoes the collective disenchantment of its era, infused with Hutchinson's astute characterizations and his own insights into the human condition. The backdrop of war and its aftermath provided fertile ground for Hutchinson to explore themes of societal change, personal responsibility, and the pursuit of happiness amidst adversity. The reissue of 'If Winter Comes' is a significant event not only for literary scholars but also for ardent readers seeking to delve into the rich tapestry of post-war literature. DigiCat's commitment to preserving and sharing the legacy of this narrative grants today's audience a window into the past, through which we can better understand the human experience. Hutchinson's nuanced storytelling and thematic explorations make this novel an essential read for those mesmerized by the intersection of history, society, and individual psyche.

The unforgettable Margaret of Ashbury returns in the second book of the trilogy that began with A Vision of Light. Margaret, a resourceful midwife, is living with the insufferable relatives of her third husband, Gilbert de Vilers, known as Gregory. She is carving out a life for herself and her daughters despite the hostility and greed of her in-laws. But when Gregory is captured in France and held for ransom, Margaret knows she must take action—her in-laws are too tight with money to be of any use—so she teams up with her old friends Mother Hilde, the herbalist, and Brother Malachi, an alchemist on a quest for the secret of changing base metals into gold. Together, the trio plan to rescue Gregory and bring him back to London, where he and Margaret can start a new life away from his meddling family. And thus begins a wild romp across fourteenth-century Europe. Murderous noblemen, scheming ladies, truculent ghosts, and a steady stream of challenges plague the journey. Margaret will need not only her special gift of healing, her quick mind, and her independent spirit but the loyalty of her friends and the love of her new husband to carry them all safely home.

This volume of correspondence, the last in a three-volume edition, spans a pivotal moment in American history: the mid-twentieth century, from the beginning of World War II, through the years of rebuilding and uneasy peace that followed, to the election of President John F. Kennedy. Robinson Jeffers published four important books during this period—Be Angry at the Sun (1941), Medea (1946), The Double Axe (1948), and Hungerfield (1954). He also faced changes to his hometown village of Carmel, experienced the rewards of being a successful dramatist in the United States and abroad, and endured the loss of his wife Una. Jeffers' letters, and those of Una written in the decade prior to her death, offer a vivid chronicle of the life and times of a singular and visionary poet.
