Well written novel where two people struggling to deal with realities of class draw on strength of character and strength of each other to overcome personal fears/ adversities. As we travel with Manuel and Annabella, we empathize with them and wish for good fortune to happen to them. Though this theme runs through Cookson's novels, each is unique and fresh. Characters are well developed--and the and one learns about the glass industry in this novel as well.
