The epic industrial novels of the 1930s, 'Cwmardy' and 'We Live' are published together for the first time. In 'Cwmardy', Big Jim, collier and ex-Boer War soldier, and his partner Siân endure the impact of strikes, riots and war, while their son Len emerges as a sharp thinker and dynamic political organiser. Len's tale is taken up in 'We Live', in which he is influenced by Mary, a teacher, and the Communist Party, which becomes central to his work both underground and in union politics, and to his decision to leave and fight in the Spanish Civil War. 'Cwmardy' and 'We Live' pain.
