Where Love Lies Deepest

>*Where Love Lies Deepest* is the heady, romantic tale of Beatrice Langton ("she was a lovely girl!!") and Laurence Cathcart the man who loves her ("how exquisitely curly his hair and mustache"). Their love has no easy course to run, and many years pass between her first rejection of his suit in Devonshire and their agonised reunion at a military hospital in Calcutta. >Daisy Ashford was twelve when she wrote *Where Love Lies Deepest* - three years older than when she had finished her famous *The Young Visiters*. The gap between writer and subject has narrowed; in *The Young Visiters* a child was writing about the strange world of adults, here she is a young girl depicting a rather older one. But, true to form, she retains a sharply satirical eye, and her style is as felicitous as ever (literary critics will doubtless note her bold and imaginative use of the historic present).
