Sylvia's Lovers (Penguin Classics)
A was powerfully moving novel of a young woman caught between the attractions of two very different men, Sylviaâ€™s Lovers is set in the 1790s in an English seaside town. England is at war with France, and press-gangs wreak havoc by seizing young men for service. One of their victims is a whaling harpooner named Charley Kinraid, whose charm and vivacity have captured the heart of Sylvia Robson. But Sylviaâ€™s devoted cousin, Philip Hepburn, hopes to marry her himself and, in order to win her, deliberately withholds crucial informationâ€”with devastating consequences.
