This is a very interesting read. It is meant to be a parody of melodramatic novels of the time. Some of it was funny/amusing and sometimes I felt I was missing something. This could partially be the dry british humor. The characters were definitly caricatures of the type of people found in a melodrama and it definitely had over the top moments. Overall it was an enjoyable read but I have to ponder on it. P.s. would make a fascinating comedic play.
