The Daffodil Days: an evening of wine and conversation in Chichester
An evening of wine and conversation with author Helen Bain
The Daffodil Days is a beautifully crafted portrayal of one of literature’s most famous power-couples, Ted Hughes and Sylvia Plath. Highly researched, the novel depicts a year in their life in a Devon Village in the early 1960s, as seen though the eyes of their community: the local GP, the church bell ringers, the postman and the shopkeepers.
This is very much a stand-alone novel- no prior knowledge of the works of Sylvia Plath is needed, but those familiar with her poetry will recognise certain themes. If you loved The Correspondent, you will most probably love this too.
