Viac o knihe

Set against a picturesque landscape, the story unfolds in a town named St Ogg's, where the Floss River flows into the sea, creating a vibrant scene of nature and commerce. The narrative captures the interplay between the rushing tide and the river, as black ships transport goods like fir planks, oil seeds, and coal, reflecting the town's bustling activity. The description evokes a serene yet dynamic atmosphere, enhanced by the February sun casting a soft purple light on the water and the aged architecture of the town.
