In lush and vivid detail, this beautifully

written novel evokes an England and an

age in which old traditions were being

challenged by new ideas. Set in the

hauntingly beautiful nineteenth-century

Dorset countryside, this moving story of

love--and of the suffering that love

sometimes brings--weaves together the

lives of four young people, all in their

own ways rebelling against the rigid

conventions and hypocrisy of the era:

Richard Webster, a handsome clergy-

man bent on reform; Laura Delaford,

the beautiful but naive young woman

whom he marries; Samuel Delaford,

Laura s unprincipled younger brother;

and Rachel Cooper, the innocent but

sensuous farm milkmaid in love with

Samuel. Their struggles bring these four

together in often unexpected and always

unforgettable ways.
