Helpful Score: 1
A great historical fiction about a year in the life of The Plague that preys on a small town, after an outsider from London takes housing with a local widow, Anna. With the help of the Rector, they decide to close themselves off from the rest of England to keep it within their borders. A sad story, but redeeming in the end. The language used is genuine to the time. I feel like I have some sense of what it must have been like to see 2/3rds of your neighbors die, and then endure the aftermath of grief and disbelief that followed. Highly recommended 4/5
