AbstractHistoryArchive Description
The narrator recalls the months he spent studying for an examination in a little Victorian township - Newford - in the 1860s. He often passed a deserted house and finding it occupied one day discovered some of its history. It was, in the late 1840s, the farm of a gloomy reclusive man who one day brought home a haughty wife. Their ceaseless quarrelling ended with her mysterious disappearance but a body was never found. Slow. (PB)
