DARK SALT CLEAR: LIFE IN A CORNISH FISHING VILLAGE (PB)

A captivating portrait of life in the Cornish town of Newlyn, the largest working fishing port in Britain. There is the Cornwall Lamorna Ash knew as a child. Then there is the Cornwall she discovers in Newlyn. This Cornwall is messier and harder; it doesn’t seem like a place that would welcome strangers. She realises that this proud and compassionate community is under threat, living in the lengthening shadow cast by globalisation. This is both an evocative journey of personal discovery and an insight into the past, present and future of our fishing communities.
