Notes

Summary: The story of the Kellaway family as they leave behind tragedy in rural Dorset and come to late 18th-century London. As they move in next door to the radical painter/poet William Blake, and take up work for a near-by circus impresario, the young Jim Kellaway gets to know a girl his age.
