Set in the 1920s and based on true characters and events, Three Fevers will take you back in time to Bramblewick, a fishing village on the spectacular, storm-ravaged Yorkshire coast. Here you will witness the conflicts between the Fosdycks and the Lunns, between progress and tradition, between life and death, and between man and the sea.
It is the book upon which J. Arthur Rank based his first film Turn of the Tide in 1935.
This is a newly-edited version prepared in 2017 from the book’s 1932 First Edition.
“The storm which closes the book is a magnificent piece of writing ... Conrad himself would have appreciated the colour and intensity ... In the matter of economy he might have even learnt from Mr Walmsley.” H E Bates
