by Howard Spring: adapted for radio in four parts by Truman Reeves
with Wilfred Pickles, Kevin McHugh, Patrick Magee

A poor Manchester boy learns to read, strikes up a lifelong friendship with a carpenter of genius, and betters himself through a mercenary marriage.

Says Wilfred Pickles 'It's a real sad, sad tale. Howard Spring originally called the book "Oh! Absalom". And, by God, it's a great story.'

(Broadcast in 1966) [Repeat]
