11-A. Lorna Doone. The book and the film
Lorna Doone
Lorna Doone is narrated by John Ridd, a yeoman of Oare parish, Somerset. The novel begins in 1673, when John is 12. His father has been murdered by the Doones of Bagworthy, a clan of outlaws who terrorise Exmoor. Born of noble stock, they are considered to be above law or justice, and act with impunity.
When John is 14, fate takes a dangerous turn. While out fishing, he ventures deep into the Bagworthy water. He loses his footing and is carried away by the river – into Doone Valley. Here he meets a young child, Lorna Doone, and narrowly avoids being discovered by the men of the Doone clan. Lorna shows John how to get safely out of the valley, and he escapes home, intending never to set foot near Doone Valley again.
