Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_content_3'); })Light A Penny Candle is the debut novel of Maeve Binchy, published in 1982. The novel follows Elizabeth White and Aisling O'Connor over a period of 20 years, as their friendship grows and changes.The novel begins in 1940, when Elizabeth is evacuated to Ireland during World War II.She is sent to live in Kilgarret with the O'Connors, and quickly befriends Aisling. She gradually comes out of her shell and becomes more confident, and she returns to England after the war as an independent young woman. However she finds that things aren't as she left them, and although she keeps in touch with Aisling, their friendship will be tested by the years to come.At over 800 pages long, this is one of Binchy's longest novels, with many side characters, making it very difficult to summarise. It's also comparatively darker than Binchy's usual fare.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_content_2'); }) | |
