"You know what life is here: Horeb Chapel and a night at the flicks and Mam and Aggie arguing and old Taliesin Howells in to tea. Oh God mun! The dreams I had of getting out of it". These words are spoken by David in the late nineteen-thirties on his return from London and the new life he has made for himself to Cwmdulais, the Rhondda mining village where he was born, and where Jinny Morgan who loves him is waiting for him to marry her.
