5.0 out of 5 stars Welsh Wizard, 17 Mar 2003
By Richard (Caerdydd, Cymru) - See all my reviews
Feet in Chains is a fantastic, rambling, flawed travel through the lives of a quarrying family, based in part on Kate Roberts' own experiences. It begins with the arrival of the new wife, Sioned and proceeds through the lives of her children. It comes from a different age, a monolingual village in Caernarfonshire, one Roberts knew about from her childhood. The translation is patchy and doesn't give over the power of the original, but nevertheless allows non-Welsh-speakers a chance to experience Roberts' work. A classic Welsh novel that everyone should read.
