Interesting story if a bit laboured sometimes. World War I, Love, and court cases about a few different social issues.
I have finally conceded that I will never finish this book. Too many characters making irrational decisions that felt contrived to force the story where the author wanted it to go. I still love Courtenay's prose (Hence the second star), but this one is a miss for me
