Title: Frustrating and perplexing
Review: I really looked forward to reading another of Ruth Prawer Jhabvala's books after devouring Heat and Dust but this was a real disappointment. The two young adults in this novel are perplexing in their choices and their characters are opaque--so much so that you don't care for them. This makes it challenging to read to the very last page (which I did) when you come out of the story thinking 'so what?'. In just about every chapter, you want to grab Michael and Harriet by the shoulders and shake them awake. This novel could have been improved by making either character a bit more sympathetic. Instead all I thought was 'dumb...dumb...dumb'. Don't waste your time.
