| Notes: | Using the restoration of a castle as a framework, Hardy considers the ancient analogy between architecture and philosophy. "Laodicean" is a term for early Christians lukewarm in their beliefs. Hardy's character, passionate architect George Somerset, finds himself captivated by "Laodicean" Paula Power, whose views on conventions of any kind are lukewarm at best. — Amazon |
