Sons and Lovers - D.H. Lawrence

This quote was added by malevolarky
With Mrs. Morel it was one of those still moments when the small frets vanish, and the beauty of things stands out, and she had the peace and the strength to see herself. Now and again, a swallow cut close to her. Now and again, Annie came up with a handful of alder-currants. The baby was restless on his mother's knee, clambering with his hands at the light.

Never heard of alder-currants, and google doesn't seem to have either.
