Helpful Score: 5
A Very Good Read!I enjoyed this novel on so many levels. The plot has a lower class, oyster-monger's daughter sees a stage performer and is so struck by her that she runs off to London as her 'dresser', beginning a fabulous tale of coming of age, sexual awakening and learning about forbidden love. The book details 3 relationships of its main character, each of which teaches her something about herself. That they are lesbian relationships offers a glimpse of gay struggle at the turn of the last century. The novel reads easily and quickly, like a story told to you over tea, and is a refreshing read.
