Tragic to see The tutor speak of his wish to leave Henley in the flashbacks knowing that even though he eventually makes it to London he leaves his family there and all

Wedding sequence was a bit dull. Third person works here because what is Agnes thinking? What was she expecting to make itself known at the wedding

The prose in this is so pretty. It’s nice to be reading literary fiction again especially one in third person.
Two chapters in and the book gives you so much from Hamnet and Judith with her illness to “the tutor” and his shit dad and that romantic interaction omg can’t wait to see it the movie and the mythical nature revolving Agnes. So good so far
