520			_a"Furze the Cruel" by John Trevena is a historical novel written in the early 20th century. This work is set against the backdrop of Dartmoor, exploring themes of nature, folklore, and the human condition as it follows the lives of the inhabitants of the moorland. The main characters introduced early on include Peter and Mary Tavy, siblings whose rustic lifestyle embodies the spirit of the land, along with Brightly, a downcast purveyor of rabbit-skins navigating the harsh realities of his existence. At the start of the narrative, the author artistically describes the geographical and mythical significance of Dartmoor, weaving imagery around the river Tavy and life on the moors. The introduction of the Tavy family reveals their daily struggles and dynamics, particularly highlighting Mary's role in her family's livelihood with her geese. The story extends to Brightly, who endures a life of poverty and hunger while collecting rabbit-skins, setting up the premise of his challenging encounters with fate and societal neglect. Through rich detail and folklore, the opening establishes a vivid landscape where the forces of nature, both harsh and nurturing, play a crucial role in shaping the lives of the characters.
