The Daughters of a Granite Land series by Anita Burgh spans three novels published between 1989 and 1991. The books follow women across generations in England’s West Country, where the granite landscape is as unyielding as the social structures that govern their lives.
Each novel focuses on a different period and a different woman, connected by place and family. The Azure Bowl, The Golden Butterfly, and The Stone Mistress trace the ways that the land, class, and family loyalty shape women’s choices across the decades.
