Both the good and the bad find sanctuary in an English villageā "You'll relish a visit to Thrush Green" (Jan Karon, #1
New York Timesābestselling author).
Ā
It's spring again in the village of Thrush Green, and with the changing of the seasons comes change in the lives of many villagers. The Young family's tranquility is disrupted by the sudden arrival of Joan's father, while Molly and Ben Curdle consider putting an end to their wandering days in order to finally settle down. Even the reappearance of Sexton Albert Piggottāone of Thrush Green's more malevolent sortsācannot dim the happiness that inevitably prevails at Thrush Green.
