Domestic Life Editorial Review
Someone at a Distance is a compelling novel published by Persephone Books Ltd. The book delves into the complexities of marriage and relationships, illustrating how an innocent flirtation can evolve into a disastrous affair, showcasing Dorothy Whipple's sharp prose and insightful character development. Readers have particularly noted the author's ability to create deep emotional connections with her characters, although some feel that the main character might be overly virtuous and the antagonists overly villainous. Despite this, the narrative strikes a chord with its realistic and even spiritual conclusion. Whipple's narratives are highly engaging, making it clear why she's considered a classic women's writer.
