The Hired Man
Melvyn Bragg's novel of Cumbrian rural and industrial working life and set around the start of the 20th century, The Hired Man tells the story of one family as they make their lives on the land and down the pit, through success and failure, celebration and tragedy, love and despair, family joy and World War. A sometimes gritty and bleak, yet uplifting, story carried by the the irresistible force of Howard Goodall's simple and emotional score, drawn from the best of British choral traditions.
