nekreader's review against another edition
2.0
Not my favorite Tey, primarily because I had the sense the entire time that I was reading it that it felt more like a play than a novel. Every element felt more like a sketch of a character or situation that could be brought wonderully to life on stage by talented comedic actors. It's a classic tale of love and class struggle and unhappy families. There are some great details and bits, but it lacks something in comparison to Tey's other works. Still, not unpleasant, and interesting to read something not about a crime or a mystery.
