victorianabigail 's review for:

East Lynne by Mrs. Henry Wood
2.0

This book was ultimately rather disturbing. None of the characters are particularly appealing, and, while it doesn't seem to be the author's intent, you get the sense at the end that they have learned nothing from all of their terrible experiences and are just trapped in the same cycle of repression and lying. An odd one.
