Title: A novel of character, not of plot
Review: If you're interested in why people behave the way they do, then you will enjoy Dew's novels. She takes ordinary people and, by showing us events through their eyes, helps us to understand what drives and motivates any of us. In this sense, her novels are much like modern novels written along the lines of "Madame Bovary" and "Anna Karenina." They are driven not by plot, but by character. People who are interested in action-driven stories are unlikely to enjoy this book.
