This is a well written gentler romance set in North Devon in the aftermath of the second world war.The main characters Ellen and Neil are both coming to terms with a past that is anguished and guilt ridden. They meet and unexpectedly are drawn to each other and fall in love. This book offers a bit more than the standard romance, this is more a character study of two quite complex and diverse characters. However in some ways I felt it was the two secondary characters Miss Searle a school teacher, and the more gregarious Miss Fisher who were the more interesting. Each represented the mood and ambience of the times, the social strictures and restraints.A subdued and well written character driven romance that is evocative of the time. ### ⭐⭐⭐ Claustrophobic And Unsatisfying *by P***S on Reviewed in the United States on September 16, 2015* This period piece is a craftsman-like story of a group of emotionally wounded strangers who happen to become acquainted by the simple reason that they find themselves on holiday at the same rural inn. The two main characters are rock-climbing Neil and the latest guest, Ellen. They are played off each other by Miss Fischer a nurse and Miss Searle. If those two Misses don't tip you off to a leitmotif in this novel, then you don't know your Mary Renault.The interplay of these characters is overshadowed by the internal turmoil and psychological stress. I won't comment about what occurs because I don't believe in spoilers and the rader were alerted to what occurs, it would destroy whatever dramatic tension which is very little in this book.You may learn more than you will ever want to know about rock climbing and country inn etiquette but at the end you may find that you really don't care too much. This novel is a typical period piece and only suggests of what Mary Renault will produce in future works. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ A Difficult Love Story *by E***O on Reviewed in the United States on October 25, 2015* Many layers of truths unfold within this sad and tragic story of love and great, unbearable loss. Beautifully written, this novel delves deeply into the unseen depths of the human psyche as the author slowly reveals the psychological portraits of each desolate character as they struggle to make human connection. Each, caught up in their own painful emotional web, make an abysmal attempt to communicate. With an almost fatal near ending finally, the ultimate truth is revealed, after which the main characters do achieve salvation and the novel ends on a positive note.Emotionally draining, dark, brooding, depressing (but also quite humorous at times!), this novel is very well worth the read if one is willing to put in the time and effort. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.pl/products/1968704-north-face-hardcover-june-10-1990](https://www.desertcart.pl/products/1968704-north-face-hardcover-june-10-1990) --- *Product available on Desertcart Poland* *Store origin: PL* *Last updated: 2026-04-23*
