A beautifully written book with a the turmoil of unspoken and unrecognized love anguish from a time that certain love ‘dare not speak its name’
Enjoyed this audio book immensely.

Fascinating and poignant historical love story

The historical backdrop of this novel has clearly been exhaustively researched. So much that the backdrop became more of a character than the characters. The plot moved very slowly and I found the two main men involved very difficult to like.

The whole thing may have been easier to endure if the narration had been more competent but I found myself tuning out every few minutes while the plot was bound up in monotonous recitation of political archives by someone who seemed to be reading a phone book.

I returned it. I don't recommend

Too much history, not enough story
