AFTER the glorious sunshine earlier this week, the weather has taken a turn for the Easter weekend.
So while enjoying a chocolate egg or two, why not curl up with a book set in East Lancashire?
Here are five novels to get you started.
1. Her Father’s Sins, by Josephine Cox
Josephine Cox
This is the first novel published by bestselling Blackburn author Josephine Cox, who sadly died in July last year.
Published in 1988, it follows a girl called Queenie as she grows up in post-war Blackburn, and Queenie’s life mirrors Cox’s in other ways too – both having alcoholic fathers and impoverished beginnings.
