Domestic Life Editorial Review
Someone at a Distance by Dorothy Whipple is a compelling story of a seemingly innocent flirtation that turns into a disastrous life decision. The novel offers an anatomy of an affair and a wisdom about marriage and relationships. The plot is engaging, the author imparts a lot of wisdom about the human condition, and the writing is excellent. Whipple is a beautiful writer who creates characters and delves deeply into how they feel when facing challenges. While some may find the main character too saintly and the secondary character too evil, the book is a great read and well worth the time.
