Description
Wells explores desire across class boundaries when a married woman from the aristocracy reignites a passionate affair with a working-class man, creating a collision between romantic intensity and social reality. Rather than melodrama, Wells delivers a nuanced psychology of how intelligent people rationalize desires that violate their own principles.
