No, it does feel a little ... off. Then again, everyone in this book is dysfunctional. That is another thing I have come to expect from Byatt. The only normal person in this book is Lady Bailey.

The main reason for my love of the book are the letters, I would say.

Yes, I saw it more as a criticism (satire?) of obsessive academia than a love-story.

It's funny. I'd have to reread, but based on what I remember I have the opposite view.

It's a sign of it being a good book that you can like it for such different reasons from mine.
