Dark and tragic, this well written modern literary novel is a study of personal atonement for past wrongs. At the heart of the story is an upper-class British family who are involved in a deeply tragic romance. I greatly enjoyed the book, but the first third literally plods along at a snail's pace before the action picks up during the war years.
