julieclairOh poor Jan, she‘s really got it bad. And I actually think Mrs. van Hopper‘s description of Max was spot on: “queer-tempered, I should think, difficult to know.”1mo
Roary47Hmmm. Young and innocent Jan. Jealousy does not become your lack of details. 🤣1mo
ElizaMarie@TheAromaofBooks ah that checks out. 40 and she is 21. Okay. Not great but…. Ugh! That is such a huge power dynamic - age, status1mo
TheAromaofBooks@ElizaMarie - I agree. Like she is an adult and out on her own, but he's definitely going to hold all the cards, especially because it's obvious that she has an uncertain, tentative personality (at this age, anyway). She's going to be so dependent on him for direction and affirmation.1mo

Maxim = Rochester in JANE EYRE
So many likenesses to these two books and characters! 😱 1mo
