Anyone else read this? I just finished it this morning and found it a very good read.
It was at times funny (petty politics of a small town), frustrating (the restrictions on the life and independence of a young intelligent woman) and also terribly poignant (WW1 just breaking out).
In the last few chapters I could not put this down as I was so desperate to find out how things would turn out for the main characters.
I have not ready anything else by this author but fully intend to. Has anyone else?
