There are many pleasures along the way, including the effective evocation of Victorian-era London. Then there are the terrific lead performances. Stevens conveys Dickens' complex, self-absorbed personality with an enjoyably light touch

This is a beautifully written novel that I really didn’t want to finish. It explores the gaps between science and superstition, and between friendship and romantic love. I felt immersed in 1890s Victorian England. I loved the bits about the surgeon Luke Garrett and his companion Martha who was a suffragette as well.
