In a sense the novel is about two worlds that are worlds apart, and which are bridged together. Not only is there a bridge between different geographical regions, but between people of different age groups and experiences. At the end of the day it's love that is the main bridge that brings these different worlds and people together. And as the author also says, 'There is more than one type of love, though not always of the sexual nature!' It's very appropriate that the cover of this novel depicts bridges! There are twists and turns in the plot that take the story into some surprising routes - the main one being from Marlow in Buckinghamshire to Derbyshire in the north. In fact, you might say that in many ways the novel is a dramatized travelogue, and one that especially highlights the scenic and rural appeal of the Peak District. - Charles Muller, Diadem Books.
