Very good! Sometimes all you need are a few sentences to get you on track when reading a novel, its main concerns and themes and some basics as to how it achieves this. This leaves your own assessment and review free. Then sometimes you might disagree and this helps realisation of the novel become fuller. This novel is also the story of a thwarted love affair so buried by Stevens that we share his lack of consciousness about his own life.
