THE YEARNING!!! god the tense, slow burn, yearning angst was beautiful in this book. my only irk is that we didn't get any more of the actual relationship as a couple. just a few short pages :( however, the commentary on the north south divide and class was immaculate, so interesting and so thoughtprovoking.
