These 2 novellas are linked by their setting in Victorian England, both exploring the nature of life and domestic living. One explores sexuality and the place of people in the Darwinian world, the other spirituality and the nature of communication with the dead/living. Both topics were all the rage in Victorian life, both popular because of the discussions of the nature of humanity that was brought into focus with Darwins theories that placed mankind farther from the angels. I enjoyed both these stories by keeping their context always in mind. From the greater perspective they were both magical in the facets of living at that time, and even today.
