In response to Making Another Case: A Victim of Love (really long), written by Karen R on October 31, 1997 at 13:11:23



this is very interesting Karen... but I'm afraid I'm not convinced. I think the simplest explanation is that they were lovers, and though there are other quite legitimate explanations of the clues in the text, I think it is more symetrical (with the Roland/Val relationship for example) if they were. But I do agree that there is room for disagreement on this point.

BTW the remark below (was it you?) that Christabel could be expected to be more sophisticated because she was French is misleading. Christabel was English, and had been brought up by an English mother, from whom she presumably would have received any education about sex. I don't think the fact that her father was French would have had any impact on her level of sexual sophistication at all.
