Tilbury Town is Born
- appears through work as a realism setting:
- Life isn't always what it seems
- You don't always get what you want
- place of darkness
- First appears in "John Evereldown"
John Evereldown, out late at night, is called back to the house by his wife, who is wondering why he wants to walk the long cold miles into town. He responds, “God knows if I pray to be done with it all/But God’s no friend of John Evereldown./So the clouds may come and the rain may fall,/the shadows may creep and the dead men crawl,—/But I follow the women wherever they call,/And that’s why I’m going to Tilbury Town.”
