So good. MIL takedown, condescending health service understanding but still bitter takedown, girls grammar school sympathetic takedown, dodgy schoolteacher probably takedown coming up. AS Byatt was angry and much better at expressing it than me.

Omg she kissed her first DILF so proud ❤️❤️

All your crushes are in the same room meme actually happens to Frederica but she is in a lame performance and they all laugh at her. Would have been the end for me. Also so sad and a really good moment written by Byatt about the cruelty of men.

Frederica stalking Raphael Faber the eminent poet/lecturer at her university and reading all of his works and forging this connection and then having this fiery intellectual kinship without even knowing if he is romantically interested in her is (alongside Christabel and Ash in Possession) one of the sexiest things I have ever read.
