An unusually intelligent and perceptive romance featuring various late-Victorian British colonialists in Calcutta falling in love with the wrong people.
Hilda Howe is a travelling actress clearly on the way to the top of her profession before she meets Stephen Arnold, a Catholic priest. Alecia Livingstone, her friend and 'pupil in the arts of life', loves the handsome Duff Lindsey, but he falls for Captain of the Salvation Army, a pious zealot for the cause.
The subtle ironies of the characters' speech and behaviour, the complete lack of emotional cliche or platitude and, of course, the setting, are not too dissimilar to E.M. Forster's A Passage to India. Forster met Duncan once and considered her “clever and odd".
Her heroine, Hilda Howe, is certainly a clever lady, and she certainly makes an odd choice on her path to becoming a star. The ending was a little abrupt, but it was the perfect way in which to crystalise the author's ideas about duty, love and vocational callings both high and low.
A surprising little gem of a novel by a writer I had never before heard of.
