"The Devil’s Pool was written very quickly in 1846. It’s a pastoral novella set in her native Berry region and depicts a way of rural life that would pass away with industrialisation. The characters of the novel are not urban sophisticates but peasants dependent on the land, whose lives are closely knitted together in community, intermarriage and the connecting relations of villages and occupations." 1
