Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book tells the story of Sargent Henderson, a young and enigmatic doctor who arrives in the sleepy village of Stourton, Leicestershire, to fill in for the local physician who is on extended leave. The author masterfully blends the quiet, rural backdrop of Victorian England with the complexities of human relationships, exploring themes of love, desire, and moral ambiguity. As Henderson's presence disrupts the village's staid routine, he becomes a catalyst for change, particularly in the life of Evelyn Sugden, the rector's daughter, whose sheltered existence is shaken by his arrival. The narrative is imbued with rich descriptions of the period's social customs, contrasting the worldliness of the traveling doctor with the innocence of village life. Through these characters and their interactions, the author delves into the nature of human connection, exploring the power of desire and the subtle shifts in a seemingly simple world that occur when an outsider arrives.
