Produced by Batsy. HTML version by Al Haines.
"Martin Pippin in the Apple Orchard" by Eleanor Farjeon is a whimsical novel that likely dates from the early to mid-20th century. The narrative revolves around Martin Pippin, a minstrel whose charm and songs draw others into his enchanting world, weaving together elements of folklore and romance. The story seems to explore themes of love, longing, and the transformative power of storytelling, set against a backdrop of a magical orchard and quirky, vivid characters. The opening of the book introduces Martin Pippin as he encounters a heartbroken young man named Robin Rue, who laments over his beloved, Gillian, who is locked away in a well-house by her protective milkmaids. Martin, with his lute in hand and a lively spirit, offers to help Robin retrieve a flower and a ring from Gillian, preparing to embark on an adventure that promises to intertwine music, love, and the whimsical charm of storytelling. As the tale unfolds, we see the magical elements come to life, inviting readers into a fanciful realm where love stories will be shared, and the fruits of the orchard serve as a metaphor for their blossoming hopes and dreams.
