'They fished with a spade at first'

Then the next page is vivid description of domestic violence

Comedy, followed by brutal violence, then romance! This book has much going on

But it feels like little has happened.
Hence slow going with this one.

I like it and has conveniently entwined with TRH french revolution series, but I really struggle with the theatrics and melodrama of Dickensian prose.
