"The letters from Lizzie West to Vincent Deering must fill the terrible gap in their love - a love now permissable after Mrs Deering's unexpected death...Yet the letters go unanswered, and when Lizzie finally understands why, her romantic education is complete."

The style is restrained and reflects the period in which it was written. Leaving time gaps in the story means that only the essential moments are captured, making it more powerful.
