Overview

"Ethel M. Chapman's ""God's Green Country: A Novel of Canadian Rural Life"" is a poignant depiction of rural Canadian life that captures the spirit of community, resiliency, and the splendour of the natural world. The story, which is set against the backdrop of rural Canada, follows a number of characters as they deal with the pleasures and difficulties of rural life. Fundamentally, the narrative honours the strong ties that are created in a tiny farming community where neighbours depend on one another for companionship and support. Through the experiences of the people, Chapman delves into issues of endurance, hard work, and the close ties to the land that characterise rural life. Readers will be gripped by Marsh's skilful tension-building throughout the book as the mystery around Helen's identity and intentions gradually comes to light. The book offers a provocative reflection on the nature of evil and the attraction of the forbidden as it tackles topics of obsession, desire, and the darker side of human nature."

Author Information

"English writer Richard Marsh (1857-1915) is most remembered for producing a large body of popular literature in the late 19th and early 20th century. He was born in England as Richard Bernard Heldmann and used the pen name ""Richard Marsh"" for his writing. When Marsh started writing in the 1880s, he was well known for his ability to write engrossing mysteries, suspense, and otherworldly stories. Although Marsh wrote in a variety of genres, such as science fiction, horror, mystery, and romance, his contributions to the Victorian and Edwardian ghost story tradition are arguably what made him most famous. His works frequently combined the macabre and the bizarre, drawing comparisons to other highly regarded writers of the day like Bram Stoker and H.G. Wells."
