Classic this is: the battle of the sexes. It has all of the lusting, scheming, backbiting, and scandal that would be the envy of Shakespeare. Yet one has to peruse it diligently. There are so many characters interacting against one another, or in collusion, that I found it distracting. Rife with footnotes to explain the old English verbiage, this also tends to slow one down. I think that I shall have to give it a rest and reread this at a later date.
